  - add missing dh_clean

73. By Michael Vogt on 2014-10-08

* SECURITY UPDATE:
  - cmdline/apt-get.cc: fix insecure tempfile handling in
    apt-get changelog (CVE-2014-7206). Thanks to Guillem Jover

72. By Michael Vogt on 2014-06-12

* SECURITY UPDATE: apt-get source validation (closes: #749795)
  - CVE-2014-0478

71. By Jonathan Wiltshire on 2013-11-16

* Non-maintainer upload.
* Apply patch for large .debs (Closes: #725483)
  Thanks Mark Hymers for the patch, Vincent Sanders for
  the review

[ Ludovico Cavedon ]
* properly handle if-modfied-since with libcurl/https
  (closes: #705648)

[ Andreas Beckman ]
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
  - Do not propagate negative scores from rdepends. Propagating the absolute
    value of a negative score may boost obsolete packages and keep them
    installed instead of installing their successors. (Closes: #699759)

69. By Michael Vogt on 2013-03-14

* SECURITY UPDATE: InRelease verification bypass
  - CVE-2013-1051

[ David Kalnischk ]
* apt-pkg/deb/debmetaindex.cc,
  test/integration/test-bug-595691-empty-and-broken-archive-files,
  test/integration/test-releasefile-verification:
  - disable InRelease downloading until the verification issue is
    fixed, thanks to Ansgar Burchardt for finding the flaw

[ Program translation updates ]
* Catalan (Jordi Mallach)
* Drop a confusing non-breaking space. Closes: #691024
* Thai (Theppitak Karoonboonyanan). Closes: #691613
* Vietnamese (Trần Ngọc Quân). Closes: #693773
* Fix Plural forms in German, French, Japanese and Portuguese
  translations. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for reporting these errors.

[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
  - do not do lock-step configuration for a M-A:same package if it isn't
    unpacked yet in SmartConfigure and do not unpack a M-A:same package
    again in SmartUnPack if we have already configured it (LP: #1062503)
* apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
  - don't call MarkInstall with the FromUser flag set for packages
    which are dependencies of APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections matchers
  - no mode changes should obviously be ok for pkgDepCache::IsModeChangeOk
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
  - do not call Mark{Install,Delete} from the autoremove code with
    the FromUser bit set to avoid modifying the auto-installed bit
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
  - ensure pkgProblemResolver calls MarkDelete without FromUser set
    so that it can't overrule holds and the protection flag

[ Michael Vogt ]
* change permissions of /var/log/apt/term.log to 0640 (LP: #975199)

[ Jonathan Thomas ]
* apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
  - fix package-pointer array memory leak in ResolveByKeepInternal()

67. By Michael Vogt on 2012-10-16

[ Program translation updates ]
* Ukrainian (A. Bondarenko)

[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
  - ensure that dependencies for packages:none are always generated
  - add 2 missing remap registrations causing a segfault in case
    we use the not remapped iterators after a move of the mmap again
  - write the native architecture as unique string into the cache header
    as it is used for arch:all packages as a map to arch:native.
    Otherwise arch comparisons later will see differences (Closes: #689323)
* apt-pkg/pkgcache.cc:
  - ignore negative dependencies applying in the same group for M-A:same
    packages on the real package name as self-conflicts (Closes: #688863)
* cmdline/apt-cache.cc:
  - print versioned dependency relations in (r)depends if the option
    APT::Cache::ShowVersion is true (default: false) as discussed in
    #218995 to help debian-cd fixing #687949. Thanks to Sam Lidder
    for initial patch and Steve McIntyre for nagging and testing!
* apt-pkg/edsp.cc:
  - include reinstall requests and already installed (= protected) packages
    in the install-request for external resolvers (Closes: #689331)
* apt-pkg/policy.cc:
  - match pins with(out) an architecture as we do on the commandline
    (partly fixing #687255, b= support has to wait for jessie)
* apt-pkg/contrib/netrc.cc:
  - remove the 64 char limit for login/password in internal usage
  - remove 256 char line limit by using getline() (POSIX.1-2008)

[ Colin Watson ]
* apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
  - Fix crash if the cache is remapped while writing a Provides version
    (LP: #1066445).

66. By Michael Vogt on 2012-09-11

[ Manpages translation updates ]
* Japanese (KURASAWA Nozomu) (Closes: #684435)
* Portuguese (Américo Monteiro) (Closes: #686975)

[ David Kalnischkies ]
* handle packages without a mandatory architecture (debian-policy §5.3)
  by introducing a pseudo-architecture 'none' so that the small group of
  users with these packages can get right of them without introducing too
  much hassle for other users (Closes: #686346)
* apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
  - copy only configured translation files from a CD-ROM and not all
    available translation files preventing new installs with d-i from
    being initialized with all translations (Closes: #678227)
  - handle Components in the reduction for the source.list as multi-arch CDs
    otherwise create duplicated source entries (e.g. "wheezy main main")
* apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
  - unpack versions only in case a different version from the package
    is currently in unpack state to recover from broken system states
    (like different file in M-A:same package and other dpkg errors)
    and avoid re-unpack otherwise (Closes: #670900)
* debian/control:
  - let libapt-pkg break apt < 0.9.4 to ensure that the installed http-
    method supports the new redirection-style, thanks to Raphael Geissert
    for reporting & testing (Closes: #685192)
* doc/apt_preferences.5.xml:
  - use the correct interval (x <= P < y) for pin value documentation as
    these are the intervals used by the code (Closes: #685989)
* apt-pkg/indexcopy.cc:
  - do not create duplicated flat-archive CD-ROM sources for foreign
    architectures on multi-arch CD-ROMs
  - do not warn about files which have a record in the Release file, but
    are not present on the CD to mirror the behavior of the other methods
    and to allow uncompressed indexes to be dropped without scaring users
* apt-pkg/pkgcachegen.cc:
  - do not create 'native' (or now 'none') package structures as a side
    effect of description translation parsing as it pollutes the cache

[ Manpages translation updates ]
* Polish (Robert Luberda) (Closes: #683109)

[ Program translation updates ]
* Polish (Michał Kułach)

[ Pino Toscano ]
* apt-pkg/contrib/mmap.cc:
  - guard only the msync call with _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO rather
    than also the fallback code as it breaks APT on hurd since 0.9.7.3
    as the fallback is now always used on non-linux (Closes: #683354)

[ David Kalnischkies ]
* apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
  - remove _POSIX_SYNCHRONIZED_IO guard in FileFd::Sync() around fsync
    as this guard is only needed for fdatasync and not defined on hurd
* cmdline/apt-get.cc:
  - error out on (unsatisfiable) build-deps on purly virtual packages
    instead of ignoring these dependencies; thanks to Johannes Schauer
    for the detailed report! (Closes: #683786)
  - ensure that the right architecture is used for cross-dependencies in
    cases we have to choose a provider by defaulting on host-arch
    instead of build-arch
* doc/apt-verbatim.ent:
  - denote 'wheezy' as stable codename and 'jessie' as testing codename
    in the documentation in preparation for release
* apt-pkg/indexcopy.cc:
  - do not use atomic writing if the target is /dev/null as we don't want
    to replace it, not even automically. (Closes: #683410)
* apt-pkg/cdrom.cc:
  - do not link() but rename() the cdroms.list to cdroms.list~ as a backup
    to ensure that apt-cdrom can be run multiple times (Closes: #676302)
