22 exceeded 80 characters even in the simplest case)
26 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
28 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
29 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
30 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
31 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)

33 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
34 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
35 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
36 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
37 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
38 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
39 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
40 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
41 written by a single write(2)

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

54 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
55 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
56 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
57 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
58 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
59 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
61 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
63 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
64 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
66 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
67 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
68 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
69 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
71 - echo 3 > debian/compat
72 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
73 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
74 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
75 password (Closes: #199425)
76 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
77 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
78 with our SGML man pages
79 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
80 fragments are properly substituted

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

105 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
106 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
108 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
109 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
110 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
