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

597 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
598 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
599 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
600 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
601 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

605 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
606 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)

609 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
610 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
611 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
613 - echo 3 > debian/compat
614 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)

616 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
617 password (Closes: #199425)

619 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
620 with our SGML man pages
621 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
622 fragments are properly substituted

629 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
