49 * Cosmetic updates to XML man pages from Richard Bos <radoeka@xs4all.nl>

53 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov

67 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
68 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
69 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
70 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)

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

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

344 password (Closes: #199425)
