1038 * Correct the section in apt_preferences(5) on interpreting priorities

1046 which they were compared when the reverse comparison fails
1047 * Reference the source package bug page rather than the one for the
1048 binary package 'apt' in the man pages (Closes: #205290)
1049 * Updated Polish po file from Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>

1064 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
1066 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
1067 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
1068 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
1069 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
1070 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
1071 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
1072 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1073 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1074 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1075 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1076 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1077 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1078 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
1079 written by a single write(2)
1080 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
1081 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)

1083 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
1085 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
1086 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
1087 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

1090 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
1091 installed (Closes: #200395)
1092 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1093 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1094 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1095 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1096 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1097 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1099 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1101 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1102 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
1104 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
1105 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1106 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1107 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1109 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1110 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1111 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1112 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1113 password (Closes: #199425)
1114 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1115 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1116 with our SGML man pages
1117 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1118 fragments are properly substituted

1122 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1124 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1125 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1126 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1127 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
1128 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
1130 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler

1133 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
1134 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
1135 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
1136 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
1137 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
1138 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1
1139 * Tweak SGML in apt-extracttemplates.1.sgml so that literal '>' doesn't end

1142 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
1143 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
1144 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1145 to have this problem
1146 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
1147 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
1148 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)

1222 small change in BuildDepend API.
1223 * APT::Build-Essential configuration option (defaults to "build-essential")
