1067 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
1068 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
1069 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)

1073 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1074 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1075 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1076 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1077 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

1093 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1094 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1095 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1096 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1097 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1098 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1100 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1102 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1103 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
1105 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
1106 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1107 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1108 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1110 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1111 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1112 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1113 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1114 password (Closes: #199425)
1115 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1116 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1117 with our SGML man pages
1118 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1119 fragments are properly substituted

1123 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1125 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1126 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1127 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1128 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

1134 configuration item (Closes: #168453)

1136 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
1137 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
1138 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

1143 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
1144 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
1145 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1146 to have this problem
1147 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
1148 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
1149 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
