99 can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)

112 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
113 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
114 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
115 being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)

117 buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging

125 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
126 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
127 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
128 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
129 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)

162 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
163 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
164 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
165 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

366 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)

392 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

395 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
