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)

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)

37 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
39 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
40 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
41 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
42 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs

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