756 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
757 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
758 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
759 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)

1014 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1015 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1016 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1017 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)

1026 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3

1029 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1030 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1031 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1032 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1033 password (Closes: #199425)
1034 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1035 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1036 with our SGML man pages
1037 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1038 fragments are properly substituted

1042 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1044 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1045 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1046 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1047 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
1048 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)

1064 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1065 to have this problem
1066 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
