5 a pin is encountered in the preferences file (Closes: #204971)
9 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
11 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
12 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
13 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)

16 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
17 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
18 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
19 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
20 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
21 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
22 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
23 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
24 written by a single write(2)
25 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
26 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)

28 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
30 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing

32 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
34 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
35 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already

37 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
38 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
39 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
40 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
41 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
42 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
44 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
46 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
47 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
49 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
50 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
51 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
52 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
54 - echo 3 > debian/compat
55 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
56 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
57 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
58 password (Closes: #199425)
59 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
60 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
61 with our SGML man pages
62 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
63 fragments are properly substituted

67 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
69 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
70 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and

89 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
91 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
92 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
93 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
