6 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
7 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
8 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
9 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
10 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
11 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

28 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
29 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
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)
34 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig

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

65 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
67 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
68 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
