1030 apt (0.5.9) unstable; urgency=low
1032 * Oh well, apt isn't going to make it into testing anytime soon due to
1033 new glibc and gcc deps, so we might as well fix more bugs
1034 * Fix typo in example ftp-archive.conf (Closes: #203295)
1035 * Mention default setting for --all-versions (Closes: #203298)
1036 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to have --version
1037 only print the version (and not usage as well) (Closes: #203418)
1038 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to switch from
1039 dh_installmanpages to dh_installman. Fixes the problem where the
1040 pt_BR man page was installed in the wrong location (Closes: #194558)
1041 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it
1042 belongs. apt-utils Replaces: apt (<< 0.5.9)
1043 * Write records from "apt-cache show" using fwrite(3) rather than
1044 write(2), in case for some reason the entire record doesn't get
1045 written by a single write(2)
1046 * Add new French man pages to doc/fr/.cvsignore
1047 * Add freebsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #193430)
1048 * Avoid segfault if a package name is specified which consists
1049 entirely of characters which look like end tags ('+', '-')
1051 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
1052 suggests/recommends for packages which are selected for installation
1053 at the same time as the package which suggests/recommends them
1055 * Patch from Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org> to avoid listing
1056 suggests/recommends which are Provided by a package which is already
1057 installed (Closes: #200395)
1058 * Patch to update pt_BR man page for apt_preferences(5) from Andre Luis
1059 Lopes <andrelop@debian.org> (Closes: #202245)
1060 * Use nl_langinfo(YESEXPR) rather than comparing to the translated
1061 string "Y". Closes: #200953 and should make the prompting generally
1062 more robust in the face of i18n. In the particular case of #200953,
1063 it was being fooled because of signedness issues with toupper(3)
1065 * apt Suggests: aptitude | synaptic | gnome-apt | wajig
1067 * Clean up whitespace in translated strings in ru.po, which messed up
1068 indentation (some other translations probably have similar problems)
1070 * Run ispell -h over the man page sources and fix a bunch of typos
1071 * Use debian/compat rather than DH_COMPAT
1072 * Update to debhelper compatibility level 3
1073 - remove ldconfig calls from debian/{postinst,postrm} as dh_makeshlibs
1075 - echo 3 > debian/compat
1076 - Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 3)
1077 * Exclude '.#*' from cvs-build
1078 * Let the ftp method work with ftp servers which do not require a
1079 password (Closes: #199425)
1080 * Build-depend on debhelper >= 4.1.62, because we need the fix for
1081 #204731 in order for dh_installman to work correctly
1082 with our SGML man pages
1083 * Move dh_makeshlibs ahead of dh_installdeb so that its postinst
1084 fragments are properly substituted

1088 apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
1090 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
1091 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
1092 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
1093 decidedly better than 0.5.4.

1101 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
1102 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
1103 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

1108 * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
1109 * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
1110 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
1111 to have this problem
1112 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
1113 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
1114 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
