501 * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
503 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
504 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
505 - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
506 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
507 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
508 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
509 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
511 * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
512 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
513 made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
514 <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #217152)
515 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
516 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
517 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
518 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
519 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
521 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
522 * Update apt-cache(8)
523 - Document --installed
524 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
525 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>
527 * Clarify documentation of --no-upgrade in apt-get(8) (Closes: #219743)
528 * Clean up and simplify some of the suggests/recommends display in apt-get
529 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
530 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
531 takes a long time to build, and ccache helps

537 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
538 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
539 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
540 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
541 or-expression is not available
542 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
543 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
544 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
545 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
547 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
548 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
549 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
550 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,

555 apt (0.5.13) unstable; urgency=medium
557 * Document configuration file comment syntax in apt.conf(5)
559 * s/removed/installed/ in a comment in apt-get.cc
560 * Move comment for ListParser::ParseDepends into the right place
561 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
562 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
563 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
564 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
565 rather they always match what is in CVS.

576 apt (0.5.11) unstable; urgency=low
578 * Updated pt_BR translations from Andre Luis Lopes <andrelop@debian.org>
580 * In apt.conf(5), give the fully qualified name of Dir::Bin::Methods,
581 rather than just "methods"
582 * Add new nb and nn translations from Petter Reinholdtsen <pere@hungry.com>
583 * Clean up reportbug script a bit, and extend it to distinguish between a
584 configuration file not existing and the user declining to submit it with
586 * Add #include <langinfo.h> to cmdline/apt-get.cc. This apparently gets
587 pulled in by something else with recent g++ and/or glibc, but is
588 required when building on, e.g., stable

590 comparisons with '~' (Closes: #205960)
591 * Disable Russian translation until someone can review it

599 to show that zero is not a valid priority, and print a warning if such
600 a pin is encountered in the preferences file (Closes: #204971)
601 * Regenerate French man pages from sgml source (Closes: #205886)
602 * Get self-tests compiling again, updated for latest library API
604 * Add version comparison tests for #194327 and #205960
605 * Fix error message in version test to output versions in the order in
606 which they were compared when the reverse comparison fails
607 * Reference the source package bug page rather than the one for the
608 binary package 'apt' in the man pages (Closes: #205290)
609 * Updated Polish po file from Marcin Owsiany <porridge@debian.org>
611 * Mention some of the available frontends in apt-get(8) (Closes: #205829)
612 * Add apt-config to SEE ALSO section of apt-get (Closes: #205036)
613 * Add missing "lang" attributes to refentry tags in French man pages
614 (apt-cdrom, apt-extracttemplates, apt-sortpkgs)
615 * Change upgraded/newly installed/not fully installed or removed
616 messages to be consistent and somewhat shorter (some translations
617 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)
618 * Make APT::Get::Show-Upgraded (aka apt-get -u) default to true.

624 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
626 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
627 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
628 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
629 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
630 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
631 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
632 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
633 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
634 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
635 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
636 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
637 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
638 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
639 written by a single write(2)
640 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
641 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
642 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
643 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
645 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
646 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
647 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
649 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
650 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
651 installed (Closes: #200395)
652 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
653 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
654 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
655 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
656 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
657 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
659 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
661 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
662 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
664 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
665 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
666 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
667 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
669 - echo 3 > debian/compat
670 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
671 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
672 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
673 password (Closes: #199425)
674 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
675 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
676 with our SGML man pages
677 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
678 fragments are properly substituted

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

692 * Give a warning if an illegal type abbreviation is used when looking up a
693 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
694 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
695 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
696 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
697 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

703 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
704 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
706 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
