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

110 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov
111 <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
112 * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
113 being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)
114 * Add an assert() to make sure that we don't overflow a fixed-size
115 buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging
116 systems to apt (Closes: #233678)
117 * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which

121 available (Closes: #233681)
122 * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
123 * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
124 Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
125 and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
126 than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
127 * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)
128 * Don't translate "Yes, do as I say!" in Chinese locales, because it can
129 be difficult to input (Closes: #234886)

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

159
160 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
161 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
162 as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
163 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)
164 * Updated French translation from Pierre Machard <pmachard@debian.org>
165 (Closes: #226886)

167 (Closes: #226813)

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

231 - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
232 version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs

235 pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
236 rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
237 * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"

244 doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
245 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
246 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
247 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
248 Closes: #221728
249 * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
250 * Update apt-cache(8)
251 - Document --installed
252 - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
253 * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>

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

264
265 * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
266 an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
267 later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
268 * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
269 or-expression is not available
270 * Add a Debug::BuildDeps to generate some trace output
271 * Help apt-get build-dep produce more useful error messages
272 * Process build-dependencies in forward rather than reverse order
273 * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=
274 build-dependency
275 * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
276 correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
277 virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
278 discouraged for automated processing (but still common,
279 unfortunately).

289 * Don't preserve ownership when copying config.guess and config.sub.
290 This broke builds where the clean target was run with different
291 privileges than the rest of the build (i.e., root) (Closes: #212183)

293 rather they always match what is in CVS.

311 * Clean up reportbug script a bit, and extend it to distinguish between a
312 configuration file not existing and the user declining to submit it with
313 the report
314 * Add #include <langinfo.h> to cmdline/apt-get.cc. This apparently gets

363 * Move the French apt-ftparchive man page into apt-utils where it

412 * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
413 far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
414 I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
415 decidedly better than 0.5.4.
416 * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)

422 * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
423 it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
424 are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
425 package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)

432 YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
433 to have this problem
434 * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
435 * Only try to clear stdin if it is a tty, to avoid looping if there is
436 lots of stuff (perhaps an infinite amount) to read (Closes: #192228)
