99 (Closes: #234685)
100 * Implement an ugly workaround for the 10000-character limit on the
101 Binaries field in debSrcRecordParser, until such time as some things
102 can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)
103 * Increase default tagfile buffer from 32k to 128k; this arbitrary limit
104 should also be removed someday (Closes: #174945)

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

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

142 * Initialize StatusFile in debSystem (Closes: #229791)
143 * Fix apt-get's suggests/recommends printing, which was skipping every
144 other dependency due to both using GlobOr and incrementing the DepIterator
145 (Closes: #229722)
146 * Restore SIGINT/SIGQUIT handlers to their old values (rather than
147 SIG_DFL) after invoking dpkg (Closes: #229854)

164
165 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
166 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
167 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
168 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)
169 * Updated French translation from Pierre Machard <pmachard@debian.org>
170 (Closes: #226886)

175 exists in the database" (Closes: #212203)

239 * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
240 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
241 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
242 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"

249 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
250 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
251 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
252 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
253 Closes: #221728
254 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
255 * Update apt-cache(8)
256 - Document --installed
257 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
258 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>
259 (Closes: #186235)
260 * Clarify documentation of --no-upgrade in apt-get(8) (Closes: #219743)

262 * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
263 * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
264 takes a long time to build, and ccache helps

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

294 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
295 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
296 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)
297 * On second thought, don't copy config.guess and config.sub at all. I'd
298 rather they always match what is in CVS.

318 the report
319 * Add #include <langinfo.h> to cmdline/apt-get.cc. This apparently gets
320 pulled in by something else with recent g++ and/or glibc, but is

416
417 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
418 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
419 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
420 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
421 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
422 (Closes: #177258)
423 * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler
424 <philippe.batailler@free.fr> (Closes: #182194)

426 configuration item (Closes: #168453)
427 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
428 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
429 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
430 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
431 * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1

435 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)

437 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
438 to have this problem
439 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
