14 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
15 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)

25 available (Closes: #233681)

27 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
28 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
29 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
30 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly

64 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
65 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined

67 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)
