7 * Get self-tests compiling again, updated for latest library API

14 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to

22 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
23 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
24 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
25 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than

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

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

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