6 * Updated Simplified Chinese translation of message catalog from Tchaikov

54 * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
55 other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined

57 compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)

139 * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
140 * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
141 isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
