1034 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
1036 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
1037 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
1038 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
1039 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
1040 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
1041 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
1042 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1043 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1044 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1045 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1046 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1047 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1048 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
1049 written by a single write(2)
1050 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
1051 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)

1053 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
1055 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
1056 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
1057 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

1060 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
1061 installed (Closes: #200395)
1062 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1063 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1064 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1065 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1066 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1067 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1069 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1071 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1072 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
1074 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
1075 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1076 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1077 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1079 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1080 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1081 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1082 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1083 password (Closes: #199425)
1084 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1085 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1086 with our SGML man pages
1087 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1088 fragments are properly substituted

1092 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1094 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1095 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1096 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1097 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

1105 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they

1107 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

1112 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
1113 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
1114 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1115 to have this problem
1116 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
1117 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
1118 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
