+  [ Automatic removal of debs after install ]
+  After packages are successfully installed by apt(8),
+  the corresponding .deb package files will be
+  removed from the /var/cache/apt/archives cache directory.
+
+  This can be changed by setting the apt configuration option
+    "Binary::apt::APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages" to "true". E.g:
+
+  # echo 'Binary::apt::APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages "true";' \
+      > /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01keep-debs
+
+  Please note that the behavior of apt-get is unchanged. The
+  downloaded debs will be kept in the cache directory after they
+  are installed. To enable the behavior for other tools, you can set
+  "APT::Keep-Downloaded-Packages" to false.
+
+  [ Compressed indices ]
+  If you use Acquire::gzipIndexes, or any other compressed index targets,
+  those will now be compressed with the fastest supported algorithm,
+  currently lz4.

+
+  A new algorithm for pinning has been implemented, it now assigns a
+  pin priority to a version instead of assigning a pin to a package.
+
+  This might break existing corner cases of pinning, if they use multiple
+  pins involving the same package name or patterns matching the same
+  package name, but should overall lead to pinning that actually works
+  as intended and documented.

   * apt-get install pkg/experimental will now not only switch the
     candidate of package pkg to the version from the release experimental
     but also of all dependencies of pkg if the current candidate can't
     satisfy a versioned dependency.
