25 * Cosmetic updates to XML man pages from Richard Bos <radoeka@xs4all.nl>
26 * Use the 'binary' target rather than 'all' so that the ssh and bzip2

29 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
30 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
31 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files

40 available (Closes: #233681)
41 * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
42 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
43 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
44 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
45 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
46 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)

77 apt (0.5.21) unstable; urgency=low
79 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
80 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
81 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
82 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

283 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

303 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
304 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

309 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

312 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT

320 password (Closes: #199425)

322 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
323 with our SGML man pages

332 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
