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

15 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
16 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
17 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1
