491 - Release signature verification (Release.gpg)
492 - Packages, Sources md5sum verification against Release
493 - Closes: #203741
494 * Make some modifications to signature verification support:
495 - Release.gpg is always retrieved and verified if present, rather than
496 requiring that sources be configured as secure
497 - Print a hint about installing gnupg if exec(gpgv) fails
498 - Remove obsolete pkgAcqIndexRel
499 - Move vendors.list stuff into a separate module (vendorlist.{h,cc})
500 - If any files about to be retrieved are not authenticated, issue a
501 warning to the user and require confirmation
502 - Fix a heap corruption bug in pkgSrcRecords::pkgSrcRecords()
503 * Suggests: gnupg
504 * Install a keyring in /usr/share/apt/debian-archive.gpg containing an
505 initial set of Debian archive signing keys to seed /etc/apt/trusted.gpg

873 * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
874 (Closes: #195444)
875 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
876 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
877 - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
878 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
879 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
880 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
881 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
882 (Closes: #213975)
883 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
884 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
885 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
886 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #217152)
887 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
888 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
889 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
890 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
891 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
892 Closes: #221728
893 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
894 * Update apt-cache(8)
895 - Document --installed
896 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
897 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>
898 (Closes: #186235)
899 * Clarify documentation of --no-upgrade in apt-get(8) (Closes: #219743)
900 * Clean up and simplify some of the suggests/recommends display in apt-get
901 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
902 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
903 takes a long time to build, and ccache helps

908
909 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
910 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
911 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
912 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
913 or-expression is not available
914 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
915 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
916 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
917 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
918 build-dependency
919 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
920 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
921 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
922 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,
923 unfortunately).

934 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
935 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
936 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd

1005 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1006 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1007 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1008 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

1026 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1027 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1028 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
