1051 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
1052 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
1053 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
1054 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
1055 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
1056 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
1057 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1058 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1059 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1060 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1061 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1062 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1063 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
1064 written by a single write(2)
1065 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
1066 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)

1068 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')

1071 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
1072 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

1077 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1078 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1079 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1080 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1081 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1082 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1084 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1086 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1087 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
1089 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
1090 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1091 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1092 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1094 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1095 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1096 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1097 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1098 password (Closes: #199425)
1099 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1100 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1101 with our SGML man pages
1102 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1103 fragments are properly substituted

1107 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1109 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1110 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1111 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1112 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

1120 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they

1122 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

1127 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
1128 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
1129 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1130 to have this problem
1131 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
1132 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
1133 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
