3 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
4 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined

62 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
63 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
64 - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
65 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
66 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
67 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
68 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
70 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
71 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
72 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
73 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #217152)
74 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
75 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
76 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
77 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
78 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
80 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
82 - Document --installed
83 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends

88 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update

96 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
97 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
98 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
99 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an

104 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
106 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
107 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on

118 * s/removed/installed/ in a comment in apt-get.cc
119 * Move comment for ListParser::ParseDepends into the right place
120 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
121 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
122 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
123 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
124 rather they always match what is in CVS.

140 rather than just "methods"
141 * Add new nb and nn translations from Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>
142 * Clean up reportbug script a bit, and extend it to distinguish between a
143 configuration file not existing and the user declining to submit it with

146 pulled in by something else with recent g++ and/or glibc, but is

158 to show that zero is not a valid priority, and print a warning if such

160 * Regenerate French man pages from sgml source (Closes: #205886)
161 * Get self-tests compiling again, updated for latest library API
163 * Add version comparison tests for #194327 and #205960
164 * Fix error message in version test to output versions in the order in
165 which they were compared when the reverse comparison fails
166 * Reference the source package bug page rather than the one for the
167 binary package 'apt' in the man pages (Closes: #205290)
168 * Updated Polish po file from Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>
170 * Mention some of the available frontends in apt-get(8) (Closes: #205829)
171 * Add apt-config to SEE ALSO section of apt-get (Closes: #205036)
172 * Add missing "lang" attributes to refentry tags in French man pages
173 (apt-cdrom, apt-extracttemplates, apt-sortpkgs)
174 * Change upgraded/newly installed/not fully installed or removed
175 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
176 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)

185 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
186 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
187 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
188 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
189 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
190 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
191 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
192 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
193 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
194 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
195 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
196 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
197 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
198 written by a single write(2)
199 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
200 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
201 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
202 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
204 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
205 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
206 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

212 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
213 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
214 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
215 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
216 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
218 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
220 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
221 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
223 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
224 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
225 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
226 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
228 - echo 3 > debian/compat

231 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
232 password (Closes: #199425)
233 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
234 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
235 with our SGML man pages
236 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst

243 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
244 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
245 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
246 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
247 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
249 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler

251 * Give a warning if an illegal type abbreviation is used when looking up a
252 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
253 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
254 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
255 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
256 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

262 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
263 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
265 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
