[ Thijs Kinkhorst ]
* Fix searching for patterns that start with a '-'. This still requires
  specifying '--' before the pattern (closes: #631438, LP: #801336)
* Unset env variables that may influence the behaviour of grep
  (closes: #617183).
* Japanese translation of update-notifier text by Hideki Yamane
  (closes: #641199).
* Improve man page layout and help output text. Thanks Jari Aalto for
  the patch! (Closes: #651695)
* rapt-file: replace dpkg-architecture call with dpkg --architecture,
  obsoleting the depends-heavy recommendation on dpkg-dev. Thanks
  helix84 (Closes: #671225).
* Checked for policy 3.9.3, no changes needed. Add explicit python
  recommendation, even though we transitively recommended it via
  python-apt already, to satisfy Lintian.
* Add rapt-file manual page (Closes: #613005).

[ Enrico Zini ]
* rapt-file: Updated distribution names, now it works on wheezy.
  (Closes: #663592)
* rapt-file: deal with missing /etc/apt/sources.list. (Closes: #636564)

[ Paul Wise ]
* rapt-file: Drop python-apt wrapper shell script, detect the lack of a
  python apt module in the rapt-file python code (Closes: #619414).
* mention rapt-file in the package description (Closes: #623632)

[ Thijs Kinkhorst ]
* apt-file: Include compontent in Contents file search paths so we
  use ftp-master's new Contents files locations. This may break
  compatibility with older suites that do not have this configuration
  (Closes: #624734).
* rapt-file: Ignore files not ending in .list in sources.list.d
  (Closes: #607861).
* rapt-file: Recommend dpkg-dev because we use dpkg-architecture
  (Closes: #613006).
* Correct scp invocation in apt-file.conf (Closes: #624290).
* Small packaging cleanups.

  LP: #508089

* Downgrade 'Recommends: menu' to 'Suggests: menu' (closes: #543353).
* Update postinst message to mention the possibility to run 'apt-file
  update' as non-root (closes: #540905).

  components (e.g. non-free), even if those components are not listed in
  the sources.list file (closes: #552986).
* Make the update-notifier hook also look into the user's cache before
  asking to update (closes: #534191).
* When creating a cache in the user's home dir, print a message how to
  switch back to the system wide cache directory (closes: #541327).

[ Thijs Kinkhorst ]
* Note in manpage that directories are not found (closes: #557181).

[ Stefan Fritsch ]
* Rework anchoring logic for package and regexp searches (closes: #557719).
* Bump Standards-Version (no changes).

9. By Stefan Fritsch on 2009-08-03

* Add initial version of rapt-file, which does not rely on the downloaded
  file lists, but queries dde.debian.net for every search. It does not offer
  all features of apt-file (closes: #518764).
* Add Enrico to Uploaders.
* Fix perl warning when $HOME is not set (closes: #527303)
* Make diffindex-download check if stdout is a terminal instead of stdin,
  to determine if it should be quiet. This fixes 'apt-file -N' disabling
  the download progress report (closes: #526393)
* Bump Standards-Version:
  - add support for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nocheck
