  1. apt (0.5.8) unstable; urgency=medium
  2. * urgency=medium because the changes since 0.5.5.1 are pretty safe as
  3. far as core functionality, 0.5.5.1 survived unstable for 10 days, and
  4. I don't want to delay apt's progress into testing any further. It's
  5. decidedly better than 0.5.4.
  6. * Clarify the meaning of the only-source option in apt-get(8)
  7. (Closes: #177258)
  8. * Updated French man pages from Philippe Batailler

  11. configuration item (Closes: #168453)
  12. * Improve build-depends handling of virtual packages even further, so that
  13. it will now also try to satisfy build-depends on virtual packages if they
  14. are not installed. Note that this only works if there is only one
  15. package providing the virtual package, as in other cases (Closes: #165404)
  16. * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20030717.1

  20. * Support TMPDIR in apt-extracttemplates (Closes: #191656)
  21. * Fix ru.po to use a capital letter for the translation of 'Y' so that
  22. YnPrompt works correctly (Closes: #200953). No other translations seem
  23. to have this problem
  24. * Regenerate POT file and sync .po files
  25. --
  26. apt (0.5.7) unstable; urgency=low
  27. * Update control file to match overrides (apt priority important,
  28. libapt-pkg-dev section libdevel)
  29. * Silence the essential packages check if we are only downloading
  30. archives and not changing the system (Closes: #190862)
  31. * Skip version check if a build-dependency is provided by an installed package
  32. (Closes: #126938)
  33. * Have apt-cache show exit with an error if it cannot find any of the
  34. specified packages (Closes: #101490)
