18. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

17. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

* netselect-apt: Apply patch provided by Ben Wong in order to
  fix some bugs
   - Add 'jessie' to netselect to make it possible to search mirrors
     of that codename (Closes: #713838)
   - Ignore corrupted results (negative score) and throw them out.
     Netselect does not handle gracefully mirrors which use
     a Round Robin DNS (see bug #755238).
     The fix prevents netselect-apt from selecting mirrors with a '-'
     in some cases (Closes: #750952)
   - Return with an error in test_host if curl is not available or
     if an empty host is provided (as suggested by doekia in #750952)

16. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

* netselect-apt: Fix minor typos spotted by Cyril Brulebois

15. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

* netselect:
   - Fix an alignment bug in netselect.c, the struct icmp might be

12. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

* netselect-apt:
   - Add a -d (debug) option as well as logging if debug is enabled
   - Extend the host validation routine by making netselect-apt download
     the 'README' file in the remote server and have it check if the
     contents there are what one would expect of a Debian mirror.

11. By Javier Fernández-Sanguino

* netselect-apt:
  - Fix the parsing of the -t option
  - Ensure that the netselect options are defined *after* the command line
    parsing to make it possible to modify them through the command line.

* netselect-apt.1:

  - Add the Debian maintainers to the author's list

packages (over 20MB worth) (Closes: 629833)
