1081 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1082 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1083 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1084 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

1101 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1102 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1103 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1104 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1105 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

1110 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

1113 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT

1121 password (Closes: #199425)

1123 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1124 with our SGML man pages

1133 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1134 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's

1153 to have this problem
