104 (Closes: #238333)
105 * In pkgAcquire::Shutdown(), set the status of fetching items to
106 StatError to avoid a sometimes large batch of error messages
107 (Closes: #234685)
108 * Implement an ugly workaround for the 10000-character limit on the
109 Binaries field in debSrcRecordParser, until such time as some things
110 can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)
111 * Increase default tagfile buffer from 32k to 128k; this arbitrary limit
112 should also be removed someday (Closes: #174945)

118
119 * Cosmetic updates to XML man pages from Richard Bos <radoeka@xs4all.nl>
120 * Use the 'binary' target rather than 'all' so that the ssh and bzip2

122 (Closes: #214842)
123 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
124 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
125 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
126 being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)
127 * Add an assert() to make sure that we don't overflow a fixed-size
128 buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging
129 systems to apt (Closes: #233678)
130 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
131 made it tricky to type, again. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
132 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #234494)
133 * Print a slightly clearer error message if no packaging systems are
134 available (Closes: #233681)
135 * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
136 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
137 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
138 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
139 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
140 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)
141 * Don't translate "Yes, do as I say!" in Chinese locales, because it can
142 be difficult to input (Closes: #234886)

149 <philippe.batailler@free.fr> (Closes: #203119)
150 * Initialize StatusFile in debSystem (Closes: #229791)
151 * Fix apt-get's suggests/recommends printing, which was skipping every
152 other dependency due to both using GlobOr and incrementing the DepIterator
153 (Closes: #229722)
154 * Restore SIGINT/SIGQUIT handlers to their old values (rather than
155 SIG_DFL) after invoking dpkg (Closes: #229854)
156 * Updated Dutch translation of message catalog from cobaco
157 <cobaco@linux.be> (Closes: #229601)

171 apt (0.5.21) unstable; urgency=low
172
173 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
174 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
175 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
176 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)
177 * Updated French translation from Pierre Machard <pmachard@debian.org>
178 (Closes: #226886)
179 * Add colons to apt-get's "kept back"/"upgraded"/"downgraded" messages
180 (Closes: #226813)
181 * Fix typo in apt-cache(8) (Closes: #226351)
182 * Clearer error message in place of "...has no available version, but
183 exists in the database" (Closes: #212203)
184 * Patch from Oliver Kurth <oku@masqmail.cx> to use AC_CACHE_VAL for
185 GLIBC_VER to make cross-compilation easier (Closes: #221528)

196 * Fixed German translations of "Suggested" from Christian Garbs
197 <debian@cgarbs.de> (Closes: #197960)
198 * Add an "apt-cache madison" command with an output format similar to
199 the katie tool of the same name (but less functionality)
200 * Fix debSourcesIndex::Describe() to correctly say "Sources" rather than
201 "Packages"

233 * Add knetbsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #212344)
234 * Don't suggest apt-get -f install to correct broken build-deps; broken

242 * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
243 (Closes: #195444)
244 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
245 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
246 - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
247 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
248 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
249 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
250 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
251 (Closes: #213975)
252 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
253 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
254 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
255 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #217152)
256 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
257 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
258 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
259 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
260 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
261 Closes: #221728
262 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
263 * Update apt-cache(8)
264 - Document --installed
265 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
266 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>
267 (Closes: #186235)
268 * Clarify documentation of --no-upgrade in apt-get(8) (Closes: #219743)
269 * Clean up and simplify some of the suggests/recommends display in apt-get
270 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
271 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
272 takes a long time to build, and ccache helps

276 apt (0.5.14) unstable; urgency=low
277
278 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
279 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
280 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
281 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
282 or-expression is not available
283 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
284 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
285 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
286 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
287 build-dependency
288 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
289 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
290 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
291 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,
292 unfortunately).

299 (Closes: #211262)
300 * s/removed/installed/ in a comment in apt-get.cc
301 * Move comment for ListParser::ParseDepends into the right place
302 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
303 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
304 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
305 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
306 rather they always match what is in CVS.

321 * In apt.conf(5), give the fully qualified name of Dir::Bin::Methods,
322 rather than just "methods"
323 * Add new nb and nn translations from Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>
324 * Clean up reportbug script a bit, and extend it to distinguish between a
325 configuration file not existing and the user declining to submit it with
326 the report
327 * Add #include <langinfo.h> to cmdline/apt-get.cc. This apparently gets
328 pulled in by something else with recent g++ and/or glibc, but is
329 required when building on, e.g., stable
330 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix version
331 comparisons with '~' (Closes: #205960)

354 * Add missing "lang" attributes to refentry tags in French man pages
355 (apt-cdrom, apt-extracttemplates, apt-sortpkgs)
356 * Change upgraded/newly installed/not fully installed or removed
357 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
358 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)
359 * Make APT::Get::Show-Upgraded (aka apt-get -u) default to true.

367 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
368 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
369 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
370 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
371 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
372 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
373 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
374 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
375 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
376 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
377 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
378 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
379 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
380 written by a single write(2)
381 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
382 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
383 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
384 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
385 (Closes: #200425)
386 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
387 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
388 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
389 (Closes: #200102)

391 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
392 installed (Closes: #200395)
393 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
394 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
395 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
396 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
397 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
398 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
399 (Closes: #194614)
400 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
401 (Closes: #146667)

424
425 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
426 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
427 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
428 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
