1017 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1018 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1019 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1020 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
1021 written by a single write(2)
1022 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
1023 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
1024 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
1025 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
1027 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing

1029 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them

1034 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1035 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1036 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1037 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1038 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1039 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1041 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig

1047 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1048 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1049 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1051 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1052 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1053 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1054 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1055 password (Closes: #199425)
1056 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1057 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1058 with our SGML man pages
1059 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1060 fragments are properly substituted

1066 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1067 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1068 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's

1088 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
