51 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to

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

78 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
79 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
80 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
81 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
82 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
84 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
86 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
87 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
89 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
90 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
91 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3

96 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
97 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
98 password (Closes: #199425)
99 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
100 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
101 with our SGML man pages
102 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
103 fragments are properly substituted

107 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
109 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
110 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and

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