557 pkgTagFile buffer size to (file size)+256. This is concealing a bug,

1003 * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
1005 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
1006 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs

1013 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
1014 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
1015 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche

1018 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
1019 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
1020 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
1021 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
1023 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)

1039 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
1040 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
1041 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
1042 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an

1049 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
1050 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on

1063 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
1064 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
1065 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)

1067 rather they always match what is in CVS.

1134 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1135 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1136 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1137 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1138 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1139 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1140 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get

1145 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')

1155 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1156 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1157 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1158 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1159 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1161 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1163 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1164 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

1167 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1168 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3

1175 password (Closes: #199425)
1176 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1177 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly

1197 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
