   3   * Already included in the last version but now with better documentation
   4     is the possibility to add/prefer different compression types while
   5     downloading archive information, which can decrease the time needed for
   6     update on slow machines. See apt.conf (5) manpage for details.
   7   * APT manages his manpage translations now with po4a, thanks to Nicolas
   8     François and Kurasawa Nozomu, who also provide the ja translation.
   9     Thanks to Christian Perrier we have already a fr translation and
  10     a few more are hopefully added in the near future.
  11   * This version also introduces some _experimental_ configuration options
  12     to make more aggressive use of dpkg's triggers. If you want to help
  13     testing these _experimental_ options see apt.conf (5) manpage.

  19   * Code that determines which proxy to use was changed. Now
  20     'Acquire::{http,ftp}::Proxy[::<host>]' options have the highest priority,
  21     and '{http,ftp}_proxy' environment variables are used only if options
  22     mentioned above are not specified.

  26 apt (0.6.44) unstable; urgency=low
  27
  28   * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB_BTREE instead of DB_HASH.
  29     If you use a database created by an older version of apt, delete
  30     it and allow it to be recreated the next time.

  34 apt (0.5.25) unstable; urgency=low
  35
  36   * apt-ftparchive --db now uses Berkeley DB version 4.2.  If used with a
  37     database created by an older version of apt, an attempt will be made
  38     to upgrade the database, but this may not work in all cases.  If your
  39     database is not automatically upgraded, delete it and allow it to be
  40     recreated the next time.
