8 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
9 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)

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

30 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
31 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
32 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
