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

533 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
534 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
535 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
536 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
537 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
538 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get

552 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
553 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
554 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
555 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
556 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
557 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
559 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
561 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
562 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
564 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
565 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
566 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
567 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs

571 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
572 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
573 password (Closes: #199425)
574 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
575 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
576 with our SGML man pages
577 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
578 fragments are properly substituted

582 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
584 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
585 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and

604 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
606 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
607 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
608 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
