1017 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1018 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1019 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1020 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

1024 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1025 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

1028 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1029 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1030 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1032 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1033 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1034 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1035 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1036 password (Closes: #199425)
1037 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1038 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1039 with our SGML man pages
1040 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1041 fragments are properly substituted

1045 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1047 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1048 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1049 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1050 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
1051 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)

1067 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1068 to have this problem
1069 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
