  27. (Closes: #238333)
  28. * In pkgAcquire::Shutdown(), set the status of fetching items to
  29. StatError to avoid a sometimes large batch of error messages
  30. (Closes: #234685)
  31. * Implement an ugly workaround for the 10000-character limit on the
  32. Binaries field in debSrcRecordParser, until such time as some things
  33. can be converted over to use STL data types (ABI change) (Closes: #236688)
  34. * Increase default tagfile buffer from 32k to 128k; this arbitrary limit
  35. should also be removed someday (Closes: #174945)
  36. * Checked against Standards-Version 3.6.1 (no changes)
  37. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Tue, 16 Mar 2004 22:47:55 -0800
  38. apt (0.5.23) unstable; urgency=low
  39. * Cosmetic updates to XML man pages from Richard Bos <radoeka@xs4all.nl>
  40. * Use the 'binary' target rather than 'all' so that the ssh and bzip2
  41. symlinks are created correctly (thanks to Adam Heath)

  44. <chaisave@263.net> (Closes: #234186)
  45. * Change default for Acquire::http::max-age to 0 to prevent index files
  46. being out of sync with each other (important with Release.gpg)
  47. * Add an assert() to make sure that we don't overflow a fixed-size
  48. buffer in the very unlikely event that someone adds 10 packaging
  49. systems to apt (Closes: #233678)
  50. * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
  51. made it tricky to type, again. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
  52. <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #234494)
  53. * Print a slightly clearer error message if no packaging systems are
  54. available (Closes: #233681)
  55. * Point to Build-Depends in COMPILING (Closes: #233669)
  56. * Make debian/rules a bit more consistent in a few places.
  57. Specifically, always use -p$@ rather than an explicit package name,
  58. and always specify it first, and use dh_shlibdeps -l uniformly rather
  59. than sometimes changing LD_LIBRARY_PATH directly
  60. * Document unit for Cache-Limit (bytes) (Closes: #234737)
  61. * Don't translate "Yes, do as I say!" in Chinese locales, because it can
  62. be difficult to input (Closes: #234886)
  63. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Thu, 26 Feb 2004 17:08:14 -0800
  64. apt (0.5.22) unstable; urgency=low

  67. * Initialize StatusFile in debSystem (Closes: #229791)

  70. (Closes: #229722)
  71. * Restore SIGINT/SIGQUIT handlers to their old values (rather than
  72. SIG_DFL) after invoking dpkg (Closes: #229854)
  73. * Updated Dutch translation of message catalog from cobaco
  74. <cobaco@linux.be> (Closes: #229601)

  85. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Mon, 9 Feb 2004 12:44:54 -0800
  86. apt (0.5.21) unstable; urgency=low
  87. * Patch from Eric Wong <normalperson@yhbt.net> to include apt18n.h after
  88. other headers to avoid breaking locale.h when setlocale() is defined
  89. as an empty macro. This was not a problem on Debian, but broke
  90. compilation on Solaris. (Closes: #226509)
  91. * Updated French translation from Pierre Machard <pmachard@debian.org>
  92. (Closes: #226886)

  94. (Closes: #226813)
  95. * Fix typo in apt-cache(8) (Closes: #226351)
  96. * Clearer error message in place of "...has no available version, but
  97. exists in the database" (Closes: #212203)
  98. * Patch from Oliver Kurth <oku@masqmail.cx> to use AC_CACHE_VAL for
  99. GLIBC_VER to make cross-compilation easier (Closes: #221528)
  100. * Add example preferences file (Closes: #220799)
  101. * Updated Greek translation from Konstantinos Margaritis <markos@debian.org>

  105. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Fri, 16 Jan 2004 10:54:39 -0800
  106. apt (0.5.20) unstable; urgency=low
  107. * Fixed German translations of "Suggested" from Christian Garbs
  108. <debian@cgarbs.de> (Closes: #197960)
  109. * Add an "apt-cache madison" command with an output format similar to
  110. the katie tool of the same name (but less functionality)
  111. * Fix debSourcesIndex::Describe() to correctly say "Sources" rather than
  112. "Packages"
  113. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Sat, 3 Jan 2004 23:42:50 -0800
  114. apt (0.5.19) unstable; urgency=low
  115. * Fix Packages::Extensions support in apt-ftparchive generate
  116. (Closes: #225453)
  117. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Sat, 3 Jan 2004 16:20:31 -0800
  118. apt (0.5.18) unstable; urgency=low
  119. * New no_NO.po file from Tollef Fog Heen <tfheen@debian.org> to fix
  120. encoding problems (Closes: #225602)
  121. * Have "apt-ftparchive release" strip the leading path component from
  122. the checksum entries
  123. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Fri, 2 Jan 2004 11:24:35 -0800
  124. apt (0.5.17) unstable; urgency=low
  125. * Enable apt-ftparchive to generate Release files. Hopefully this will
  126. make it easier for folks to secure their apt-able packages
  127. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Fri, 26 Dec 2003 12:53:21 -0800
  128. apt (0.5.16) unstable; urgency=low
  129. * po/de.po update from Michael Karcher <karcher@physik.fu-berlin.de>
  130. (Closes: #222560)
  131. * Update config.guess and config.sub from autotools-dev 20031007.1
  132. * Add knetbsd to buildlib/ostable (Closes: #212344)
  133. * Don't suggest apt-get -f install to correct broken build-deps; broken
  134. installed packages are rarely the cause (Closes: #220858)
  135. * Avoid clobbering configure.in if sed fails
  136. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Wed, 24 Dec 2003 14:54:40 -0800
  137. apt (0.5.15) unstable; urgency=low
  138. * Spanish man pages, patch from Ruben Porras <nahoo82@telefonica.net>
  139. (Closes: #195444)
  140. - apt.es.8 wasn't included in the patch, but was referenced. Fetched
  141. version 1.3 from debian-doc cvs
  142. - Create doc/es/.cvsignore
  143. * Patch from Koblinger Egmont <egmont@uhulinux.hu> to fix
  144. pkgCache::PkgFileIterator::Label() to correctly refer to File->Label
  145. rather than File->Origin (Closes: #213311)
  146. * Add missing comma and space to German translation of "downgraded"
  147. (Closes: #213975)
  148. * Add missing comma in apt_preferences(5) (Closes: #215362)
  149. * Fix whitespace in French translation of "Yes, do as I say!", which
  150. made it tricky to type. Thanks to Sylvain Pasche
  151. <sylvain.pasche@switzerland.org> (Closes: #217152)
  152. * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the installed package
  153. doesn't meet version requirements (Closes: #214736)
  154. * Fix version display for recommends (Closes: #219900)
  155. * Use isatty rather than ttyname for checking if stdin is a terminal.
  156. isatty has the advantage of not requiring /proc under Linux, and thus
  157. Closes: #221728
  158. * Correctly implement -n as a synonym for --names-only (Closes: #224515)
  159. * Update apt-cache(8)
  160. - Document --installed
  161. - --recursive applies to both depends and rdepends
  162. * Japanese translation of documentation from Kurasawa Nozomu <nabetaro@slug.jp>
  163. (Closes: #186235)
  164. * Clarify documentation of --no-upgrade in apt-get(8) (Closes: #219743)
  165. * Clean up and simplify some of the suggests/recommends display in apt-get
  166. * Use cvs update -d in debian/rules cvs-build rather than just update
  167. * Pass --preserve-envvar PATH --preserve-envvar CCACHE_DIR to debuild. apt
  168. takes a long time to build, and ccache helps
  169. -- Matt Zimmerman <mdz@debian.org> Sat, 20 Dec 2003 16:34:30 -0800
  170. apt (0.5.14) unstable; urgency=low
  171. * apt-get build-dep, when trying to skip over the remaining elements of
  172. an or-expression, would accidentally inherit the version requirements of a
  173. later item in the or-expression. Fixed it.
  174. * Let apt-get build-dep try alternatives if the first dependency in an
  175. or-expression is not available

  179. * Error out if an installed package is too new for a << or <=

  181. * apt-get build-dep should now be able to handle almost any package with
  182. correct build-depends. The primary exception is build-dependencies on
  183. virtual packages with more than one provider, and these are
  184. discouraged for automated processing (but still common,
