10 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
11 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
12 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
13 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

22 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
23 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

30 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
32 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
33 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
34 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
