 +apt (0.8.11+wheezy) unstable; urgency=low
 +
 +  * apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
 +    - add SetCandidateRelease() to set a candidate version and
 +      the candidates of dependencies if needed to a specified
 +      release (Closes: #572709)
 +  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
 +    - if --print-uris is used don't setup downloader as we don't need
 +      progress, lock nor the directories it would create otherwise
 +    - show dependencies of essential packages which are going to remove
 +      only if they cause the remove of this essential (Closes: #601961)
 +    - keep not installed garbage packages uninstalled instead of showing
 +      in the autoremove section and installing those (Closes: #604222)
 +    - change pkg/release behavior to use the new SetCandidateRelease
 +      so installing packages from experimental or backports is easier
 +    - really do not show packages in the extra section if they were
 +      requested on the commandline, e.g. with a modifier
 +  * debian/control:
 +    - add Vcs-Browser now that loggerhead works again (Closes: #511168)
 +  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
 +    - add a RealFileExists method and check that your configuration files
 +      are real files to avoid endless loops if not (Closes: #604401)
 +  * apt-pkg/contrib/weakptr.h:
 +    - include stddefs.h to fix compile error (undefined NULL) with gcc-4.6
 +  * methods/https.cc:
 +    - fix CURLOPT_SSL_VERIFYHOST by really passing 2 to it if enabled
 +  * deb/dpkgpm.cc:
 +    - fix popen/fclose mismatch reported by cppcheck. Thanks to Petter
 +      Reinholdtsen for report and patch! (Closes: #607803)
 +  * doc/apt.conf.5.xml:
 +    - fix multipl{y,e} spelling error reported by Jakub Wilk (Closes: #607636)
++  * apt-inst/contrib/extracttar.cc:
++    - let apt-utils work with encoded tar headers if uid/gid are large.
++      Thanks to Nobuhiro Hayashi for the patch! (Closes: #330162)
