37 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
38 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
39 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus

57 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
58 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a

80 * Move comment for ListParser::ParseDepends into the right place
81 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
82 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
83 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
84 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
85 rather they always match what is in CVS.

136 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
137 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)

146 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
147 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs

149 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)

152 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
153 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
154 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
155 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
156 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
157 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
158 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
159 written by a single write(2)

161 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
162 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
163 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')

166 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
167 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

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

181 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
182 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
184 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
185 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT

193 password (Closes: #199425)

204 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
205 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
206 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
207 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

214 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
215 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
216 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one

224 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
226 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
