apt (0.9.6) unstable; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
    - fix regression from 0.9.3 which dumped the main configuration
      _config instead of the cdrom settings (Cnf) as identified and
      tested by Milan Kupcevic, thanks! (Closes: #674100)
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - do not show 'list of broken packages' header if no package
      is broken as it happens e.g. for external resolver errors
    - print URIs for all changelogs in case of --print-uris,
      thanks to Daniel Hartwig for the patch! (Closes: #674897)
    - show 'bzr branch' as 'bzr get' is deprecated (LP: #1011032)
    - check build-dep candidate if install is forbidden
  * debian/apt-utils.links:
    - the internal resolver 'apt' is now directly installed in
      /usr/lib/apt/solvers, so don't instruct dh to create a broken link
  * doc/apt-verbatim.ent:
    - APT doesn't belong to the product 'Linux', so use 'APT' instead
      as after all APT is a big suite of applications
  * doc/examples/sources.list:
    - use the codename instead of 'stable' in the examples sources.list
      as we do in the manpage and as the debian-installer does

    - fix segfault with empty LongOpt in --no-* branch
  * ftparchive/apt-ftparchive.cc:
    - default to putting the Contents-* files below $(SECTION) as apt-file

  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - if APT::Languages=none save "none" in allCodes so that the detected
      configuration is cached as intended (Closes: #674690, LP: #1004947)
  * apt-pkg/cacheiterators.h:
    - add an IsMultiArchImplicit() method for Dep- and PrvIterator

    - add support for arch-specific qualifiers in dependencies

apt (0.9.5.1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - dup() given compressed fd in OpenDescriptor if AutoClose
      is disabled as otherwise gzclose() and co will close it

    - use docbook DTD 4.5 instead of 4.2 to have valid docs

  [ Justin B Rye ]

    - remove 'GNU/Linux' from 'Debian systems' strings as Debian
      has more systems than just GNU/Linux nowadays
  * doc/apt-cache.8.xml:
    - fix a typo as well as adding missing literal markup

apt (0.9.5) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Chris Leick ]
  * proofreading of the manpage pot
  * German manpage translation update (Closes: #673294)

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * buildlib/podomain.mak:
    - ensure that all sources end up in the srclist so that we don't
      forget to extract half of the translation strings
  * buildlib/inttypes.h.in:
    - remove inttypes.h compatibility as providing such a c99 types
      compatibility conflicts with the usage of c99 type long long
  * apt-pkg/contrib/mmap.cc:
    - have a dummy SyncToFd around in case of ReadOnly access to a
      compressed file as we otherwise on Close() do not delete[] the
      char buffer but munmap() it… (Closes: #673815)
  * debian/control:
    - moving debiandoc-sgml to Build-Depends-Indep was one step too much
      for the buildds as we still build two sgml files in arch:any
  * debian/rules:
    - move internal-solver as 'apt' to his friend dump-solver in
      /usr/lib/apt/solvers to avoid writing a manpage for it

apt (0.9.4) unstable; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * methods/http.cc:
    - after many years of pointless discussions disable http/1.1 pipelining
      by default as many webservers and proxies seem to be unable to conform
      to specification must's (rfc2616 section 8.1.2.2) (LP: #996151)
    - add spaces around PACKAGE_VERSION to fix FTBFS with -std=c++11
  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
    - make IsDuplicatedDescription static so that it is really private
      as we don't need a symbol for it as it is not in a header
  * Makefile, buildlib/*.mak:
    - reshuffle dependencies so that parallel building seems to work
    - separate manpages from the rest of the doc building
  * prepare-release:
    - apt-inst version isn't apt versions, so don't override variable
  * debian/rules:
    - apt-utils packages manpages, so it should depend on build-doc
    - make apt and apt-utils packages depend on manpages instead of full doc
  * debian/control:
    - move doxygen and debiandoc-sgml to Build-Depends-Indep as docs
      are no longer build in the same target as the manpages
  * apt-pkg/acquire-methods.cc:
    - factor out into private Dequeue() to fix access to deleted pointer
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - ensure that we close compressed fds, wait for forks and such even if
      the FileFd itself is set to not autoclose the given Fd
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - use the host architecture, not the build architecture for matching
      of [architecture restrictions] in Build-Depends (Closes: #672927)
  * doc/makefile:
    - build manpages with the correct l10n.gentext.default.language setting
      to get the correct section titles provided by docbook
  * doc/po/de.po:
    - updated german manpage translation by Chris Leick, thanks!
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - do not run into loop on new-pre-depends-breaks (Closes: #673536)
  * doc/*.xml:
    - add a few translator notes and reword some paragraphs to ensure that
      translators and users alike can better understand them (Closes: #669409)
    - in <term> mark all options with <option> and mark <term><option>
      as untranslated for po4a removing ~200 unless "translateable" strings
  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - longcode Translation files are saved with encoded underscore,
      so make sure to pick these files up as well for Acquire::Languages
  * ftparchive/writer.cc:
    - include Contents-* files in Release files (Closes: #673647)

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * merged updated de.po, thanks to Holger Wansing (closes: #672466)

  [ Raphael Geissert ]
  * apt-pkg/acquire*.cc:
    - handle redirections in the worker with the right method instead of
      in the method the redirection occured in (Closes: #668111)
  * methods/http.cc:
    - forbid redirects to change protocol
  * methods/mirror.cc:
    - generate an equal sign also for the first arch (Closes: #669142)

  [ Marius Vollmer ]
  * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
    - fix memory leak of Flags in pkgSimulate by a proper destructor

apt (0.9.3) unstable; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/contrib/strutl.cc:
    - remove the message size limit from ioprintf and strprintf
  * apt-pkg/contrib/configuration.cc:
    - add a more versatile Dump() method
    - normalize a bit by replacing // and /./ with / in FindFile
    - /dev/null is a special absolute path as it has no subdirectories
  * apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
    - use Dump() to generate the configuration message for sending
  * cmdline/apt-config.cc:
    - make it possible to limit dump to a subtree
    - implement --empty and --format option for dump
  * apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
    - use Dump() to generate the configuration output
  * apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
    - clearly separate 'positive' and 'negative' dependencies and
      their upgrade-resolution tries in MarkInstall and especially don't
      treat Conflicts differently compared to Breaks here
    - provider is only a possible solution if the provides has the right
      version (or none as we have no versioned provides in debian) and not
      if the version of the provider matches
  * edsp/edspsystem.cc:
    - check with RealFileExists for scenario file as otherwise a directory
      like one provided with RootDir triggers the usage of EDSP
  * debian/libapt-inst1.5.symbols:
    - use the correct library name the symbols header
  * apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
    - check if NewDescription allocation has failed and error out accordingly
    - check if we work on a valid description in IsDuplicateDescription as
      we end up working on dangling pointers otherwise which segfaults on
      s390x and ppc64 (Closes: #669427)
  * apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
    - check length and containing chars for a given description md5sum
  * ensure that apti18n.h is included last as advertised (Closes: #671623)
  * apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
    - revert the use of FileFd::Write in OutFdReady as we don't want error
      reports about EAGAIN here as we retry later. Thanks to YOSHINO Yoshihito
      for the report. (Closes: #671721)
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - check that the fd which are closed are valid
    - ensure that we do init d only once and especially not with its own
      content as this causes some "interesting" hickups resulting in segfaults
      as it seems (Closes: #554387, #670979)
    - collect zombie (de)compressor processes on reopen
    - ensure that in error conditions the Fail flag is set
    - ensure that d is set before accessing it
  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - use NULL instead of "" for no (un)compress parameters
  * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
    - factor out of ListUpdate a AcquireUpdate to be able to provide your
      own pkgAcquire fetcher to the wrapper
  * apt-inst/deb/debfile.h:
    - readd 'md5.h' to the uncleaned header includes to make qapt build
      against us again unchanged to unblock transition (Closes: #669163)

apt (0.9.2) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * apt-inst/contrib/extracttar.cc:
    - ensure that in StartGzip the InFd is set to "AutoClose" to ensure
      that the pipe is closed when InFd is closed. This fixes a Fd leak
      (LP: #985452)

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
   * apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
    - only treat the native apt as essential by default (Closes: #669377)
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - redirect stderr from compressors to /dev/null
  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - if the compressor is not installed, but we link against it's
      library accept it as a CompressionType (Closes: #669328)
  * apt-pkg/contrib/sha2_internal.cc:
    - do not use the input data directly but memcpy it instead as
      it could be unaligned as in the http-transport which causes
      a sigbus error on sparc (Closes: #669061)
  * apt-pkg/cacheset.cc:
    - actually return to the fallback modifier if we have detected we
      should for packagenames which look like modifiers (Closes: #669591)

  [ Adam Conrad ]
  * Set FD_CLOEXEC on history.log's FD (Closes: #610069, LP: #636010)

  [ Thorsten Spindler ]
  * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
    - do not crash if (*I).Pkg is NULL (LP: #939867)

  [ Malcolm Scott ]
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - iterate over all pre-depends or-group member instead of looping
      endlessly over the first member in SmartUnpack (LP: #985852)

apt (0.9.1) unstable; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - if pkgCacheFile::Generate is disabled in 'update' don't
      remove the caches (and don't try to open them)
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - init counter in SmartConfigure so that the loop-breaker isn't
      triggered at random… (Closes: #669060)

  [ Christian Perrier ]
  * Fix typo in apt-get(8). Closes: #664833
  * Replace "argument" by "paramètre" in French translation.
    Merci, les Titeps!
  * Drop hardcoded "en.html" suffix in apt-secure manpage.
    Thanks to David Prevot.

apt (0.9.0) unstable; urgency=low

  * upload to debian/unstable

apt (0.9.0~exp1) experimental; urgency=low

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - fix inconsistent clog/cout usage in the debug output
    - add APT::pkgPackageManager::MaxLoopCount to ensure that the
      ordering code does not get into a endless loop when it flip-flops
      between two states
  * update libapt-inst1.4 to libapt-inst1.5 because of the cleanup
    performed
  * prepare debian/unstable upload, if there are no issues with this
    upload it will directly go into unstable as 0.9.0

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * do not update po and pot files in the process of the build as this
    causes timestamp changes for the mo files which therefore can't
    be refcounted by dpkg for your M-A: same packages
    (Closes: #659333, LP: #924628)
  * apt-inst/database.{cc,h}, apt-inst/deb/dpkgdb.{cc,h}:
    - drop instead of fix as it is only needed if you want to reimplement dpkg
      and comes straight from the beginning of last decade (Closes: #663372)
  * apt-inst/deb/debfile.cc:
    - {Extract,Merge}Control() is another instance of "lets reimplement dpkg"
      so shot of this code before someone ends up using this…
  * debian/libapt-pkg4.12:
    - update symbols file
  * debian/apt-utils.install:
    - ship the ftparchive, apt-extractemplates and apt-sortpkgs locales
      in the apt-utils package instead of the apt package
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - recheck all dependencies if we changed a package in SmartConfigure
      as this could break an earlier dependency (LP: #940396)
    - recheck dependencies in SmartUnpack after a change, too
  * apt-pkg/acquire-worker.cc:
    - check return of write() as gcc recommends
  * apt-pkg/acquire.cc:
    - check return of write() as gcc recommends
  * apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
    - check return of chdir() and link() as gcc recommends
  * apt-pkg/clean.cc:
    - check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
  * apt-pkg/contrib/netrc.cc:
    - check return of asprintf() as gcc recommends
  * methods/rred.cc:
    - check return of writev() as gcc recommends
  * methods/mirror.cc:
    - check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
  * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
    - check return of write() a gcc recommends
  * apt-inst/deb/debfile.cc:
    - check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
  * apt-inst/deb/dpkgdb.cc:
    - check return of chdir() as gcc recommends
  * methods/makefile:
    - do not link rred against libz anymore as FileFd handles all
      this transparently now
  * debian/control:
    - bump Standards-Version to 3.9.3 (no changes needed)
    - add libbz2-dev as new build-dependency
    - remove the libz-dev alternative from zlib1g-dev build-dependency
    - suggest xz-utils instead of bzip2 and lzma
  * doc/apt-get.8.xml:
    - typofix: respect → respecting, thanks Mike Erickson! (Closes: #664833)
  * debian/rules:
    - do not sed in configure.in to set the version-number
  * prepare-release:
    - add as a small script to lazy check and prepare releases
  * doc/*:
    - move the command synopsis out of each manpage into apt-verbatim.ent
      as they are a hell to translate and just single out the parameters
      which can be translated to apt.ent
  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - if present, prefer xz binary over lzma
    - if we have zlib builtin insert add a dummy gzip compressor for FileFD
    - do the same for bz2 builtin if available
  * methods/bzip2.cc:
    - remove it as the functionality for all compressors can be
      provided by gzip.cc now with the usage of FileFD
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - use libz2 library for (de)compression instead of the bzip2 binary as
      the first is a dependency of dpkg and the later just priority:optional
      so we gain 'easier' access to bz2-compressed Translation files this way
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - print list of autoremoves in alphabetical order (Closes: #639008)

  [ Bogdan Purcareata ]
  * doc/apt-get.8.xml:
    - add 'download' to the usage line (Closes: #649340)
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - distinguish information about 'apt-get autoremove' based on the
      number of auto-removed packages both before and after the list
      of packages (Closes: #665833)

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * don't treat build-depends-indep as cross-build-dependencies; we should
    always install the host arch versions.  LP: #968828.

  [ Paolo Rotolo ]
  * Fix string from automatic to automatically (LP: #967393).

apt (0.8.16~exp13) experimental; urgency=low

  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
    - remove 'old' InRelease file if we can't get a new one before
      proceeding with Release.gpg to avoid the false impression of a still
      trusted repository by a (still present) old InRelease file.
      Thanks to Simon Ruderich for reporting this issue! (CVE-2012-0214)
    - add Debug::pkgAcqArchive::NoQueue to disable package downloading
  * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
    - chroot if needed before dpkg --assert-multi-arch
    - ensure that dpkg binary doesn't have the chroot-directory prefixed

    - save the universe by not printing messages about apport if a package
      with this name is not installed (Closes: #619646)
    - handle a SIGINT in all modes as a break after the currently running
      dpkg transaction instead of ignoring it completely

    - if a M-A:same package is marked for reinstall, mark all it's installed
      silbings for reinstallation as well (LP: #859188)
  * apt-pkg/contrib/configuration.cc:
    - do not stop parent transversal in FindDir if the value is empty
  * methods/http{s,}.cc:
    - if a file without an extension is requested send an 'Accept: text/*'
      header to avoid that the server chooses unsupported compressed files
      in a content-negotation attempt (Closes: #657560)
    - remove the arbitrary MAXLEN limit for response lines (Closes: #658346)
  * apt-pkg/aptconfiguration.cc:
    - chroot if needed before calling dpkg --print-foreign-architectures
    - ensure that architectures are not added multiple times
  * cmdline/apt-mark.cc:
    - detect if dpkg has multiarch support before calling --set-selections
    - correctly ignore already (un)hold packages
  * apt-pkg/cachefile.cc:
    - clean up lost atomic cachefiles with 'clean' (Closes: #650513)
  * apt-pkg/indexrecords.cc:
    - do not create empty Entries as a sideeffect of Lookup()
  * apt-pkg/acquire-item.cc:
    - drop support for i18n/Index file (introduced in 0.8.11) and use
      the Release file instead to get the Translations (Closes: #649314)
    - use pdiff for Translation-* files if available (Closes: #657902)
  * ftparchive/writer.cc:
    - add 'Translation-*' to the default patterns
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - if a package can't be removed as it is not installed, suggest to
      the user an (installed) multiarch silbing with 'Did you mean?'
    - improve 'error' message for packages which are only referenced
      e.g. in a Depends line and are now requested for removal
  * cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
    - correct --pre-depends option by using dash consistently (LP: #940837)
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - do not try to a void a breaks if the broken package pre-depends
      on the breaker, but let dpkg auto-deconfigure it
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - do not warn about the ignoring of directories (Closes: #662762)

  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - for cross-build-dependencies M-A: none should be DEB_HOST_ARCH,
      not DEB_BUILD_ARCH (Closes: #646288)

  [ Colin Watson ]
  * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
    - don't break out of the main-resolver loop for Breaks to deal with all
      of them in a single iteration (Closes: #657695, LP: #922485)
    - use a signed int instead of short for score calculation as upgrades
      become so big now that it can overflow (Closes: #657732, LP: #917173)
  * Fix IndexCopy::CopyPackages and TranslationsCopy::CopyTranslations to
    handle compressed files again (LP: #924182, closes: #658096)

  [ Julian Andres Klode ]
  * apt-pkg/deb/deblistparser.cc:
    - Set the Essential flag on APT instead of only Important
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - Do not use immediate configuration for packages with the Important flag
  * Treat the Important flag like the Essential flag with those differences:
    - No Immediate configuration (see above)
    - Not automatically installed during dist-upgrade
    - No higher score for installation ordering
