aptitude (0.4.4-4) unstable; urgency=low
* In addition to the bugfix for ssprintf, the last release included
a new test case to ensure that the bug did not recur. As it turned
out, this test case revealed that both the old and the new code
were buggy on amd64! vssnprintf now handles its variable argument
list properly, using va_copy in case it has to access the list a
second time. (Closes: #414617)

aptitude (0.4.4-3) unstable; urgency=low
* Recompile to get translations back on i386. (Closes: #413698) * Fix a nasty problem that could cause aptitude to want to remove packages installed using apt-get or dpkg. (Closes: #411123) This is triggered by the installer, so probably this update should get into etch if possible. * Fix a bug in an internal "sprintf" variant that would include random characters in the output string sometimes (by reading from an allocated but uninitialized buffer). * French documentation update.

aptitude (0.4.4-2) unstable; urgency=low
* l10n and documentation release targeted at etch. The following code
fixes are also included:
- Use delete[] to delete several arrays instead of plain
delete.
- Update the fix for signal blockage during configure to
work when a package install fails (in which case the
previous release ran dpkg --configure -a with signals blocked).
* Many editorial fixes to the user's manual and updates to the
Japanese translation by Noritada Kobayashi. There is a Japanese
version of the manual in the source tree, but this upload does not add
a new documentation package.
* The FSF's address in the manpage license has been fixed.
* Don't generate two identical author lines in the manpage.
(Closes: #397224)
* Localize tasks group names.

that processes spawned by dpkg don't end up with weird signal masks.

packages if the removal is cancelled. (Closes: #254422)

suggested-but-not-installed packages, and there are better
ways of doing that now.
(Closes: #245410)
- The non-hierarchical tree mode is broken and shows no signs of
being fixed; until it is fixed, aptitude will not use it.

aptitude (0.2.11-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- Not quite a Debian bug, but IMPORTANT: I have made the "new" command
style the default! If you have modified your configuration this should
not be an issue, but if you haven't and you prefer the old style, look
in the "UI Options" menu.
- Translations are probably all screwed up in this release; many strings
changed. Sorry :-(
- The Y/n command-line prompt now is more capable: you can enter the
full UI or modify package selections from it. Enter '?' at it for a
complete description. (Closes: #136916)
- The '+' keybinding is no longer used to reinstall packages, ever.
Use 'L' if you really want to reinstall something. (Closes: #138122)
- An "unhold" command is now available from the command-line.
(Closes: #137770)
- A tripartite joeyh bug:
* Tasks and sections which have 'descriptions' now display them in
the "long description area". (some of the descriptions I've written
for sections are a bit hokey, though)
* The Tasks tree previously hid many packages due to a parsing bug,
making it virtually useless. This is now fixed.
* The "alien" section has a description now.
(Closes: #136684)
- Added a %H escape for display areas. It expands to the current
computer's hostname. (Closes: #137754)
- In command-line mode, suppress the prompt on upgrades when there are
no actions to be taken. (Closes: #137302)
- Fixed a bug that caused packages being reinstalled to not be listed
in the preview screens. (Closes: #138120)
- Fixed (read: rewrote to dehackify) the description widget's formatting
code. (Closes: #137783)
- If the user aborts an update, the cache is reloaded before returning to
the display. (Closes: #138070)
- The default value of autoclean is really "false" again.
(Closes: #138685)
- Fixed a rather nasty segfault due to running off the end of the package
list. How I didn't notice this for so long, I don't know.
(Closes: #136967)
- Eliminated an infinite loop that occured if the user tried to scroll
the description while it was hidden. (Closes: #140361)
- The "install" command-line option now checks whether you entered a valid
package name before deciding whether to treat trailing '+'/'-'/'_'/'='
characters as commands. (Closes: #140933)
- You can no longer focus an unscrollable description widget, and the
highlight bar in the package tree is hidden when the tree loses focus.
(Closes: #136550)
- "aptitude --help" now documents the "download" command.
(Closes: #138150)
- The status messages on startup are now suppressed when using
"aptitude search". (Closes: #136873)
- When the download is stalled, "stalled" is now displayed in the progress
bar (Curses frontend only) (Closes: #136520)
- The command-line mode deals correctly with window resizes now.
(Closes: #137945)
- No longer displays an "available" version for obsolete/local packages.
(Closes: #120872)
- aptitude now recognizes the "--version" option. (Closes: #141296)
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Sun, 7 Apr 2002 10:02:50 -0400
aptitude (0.2.10-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- You can now access many features of aptitude from the command line.
See "aptitude help" and/or aptitude(1) and/or the README for details.
- The "p" package state is documented (Closes: #135112)
- Sorted out the ~r matcher status. Some people like the old behavior,
so it's been reinstated; you can find out what packages would be
or have been garbage-collected via ~g now. (Closes: #135571)
- Fixed a minor display bug in the download summary: the total time
always had an extra "s" appended to it. (Closes: #135567)
- Removed the INSTALLATION section from the manual. On the other
hand, the space it used is more than taken up by the documentation for
the new command-line stuff. I could move that elsewhere -- let me
know what you think, Joey. (Closes: #136478)
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Sat, 2 Mar 2002 21:29:06 -0500
aptitude (0.2.9.4-2) unstable; urgency=high
* Backported a fix from CVS for a nasty interaction when the user
tried to follow Suggests and remove unused packages at the same time.
This doesn't fix all the issues, but it gets rid of the most
immediate problem. A more complete fix may be hashed out in the future.
(Closes: #135956)
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Wed, 27 Feb 2002 09:12:18 -0500
aptitude (0.2.9.4-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream release
- Fixed crashing bug on Alpha due to divide-by-zero.
This made aptitude much less useful on alpha machines, hence the
high urgency.
(Closes: #122064)
- forget-new-on-update and forget-new-on-install now actually work.
(Closes: #134226)

* New upstream release
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Sat, 9 Feb 2002 11:43:08 -0500
aptitude (0.2.9-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. Debian bug-related changes:
- aptitude now tracks automatically installed packages, similarly
to deborphan/debfoster. (Closes: #122726, #102205, #114464)
- Packages which are held, but not broken, are now visually flagged
as being broken. I believe this is enough of a fix for this
particular bug. (Closes: #120785)
There is more to do in general, but there are other bugs filed
about that :)
- Log messages now include the date and time. (Closes: #120874)
- Re-ordered the preview screen's grouping to hopefully put more
interesting things first and be more logical. Feedback requested.
(Closes: #128542)
- Rewrote several sections of the documentation, incorporating some
user feedback (Closes: #126492) There may be more work to do here.
- Mark all upgradable packages to be upgraded BEFORE resolving
dependencies. This fixes a somewhat complex misbehavior
involving ORed version-specific dependencies. (Closes: #108379)
- Changed the symbols for collapsed/opened trees to something that I
hope is less ambiguous. (Closes: #120890, #102033)
- When editing a string, the cursor now starts at the beginning
of the line. (Closes: #120890)
- When reconfiguring packages, the software fails more gracefully if
/usr/sbin/su-to-root does not exist. (Closes: #130423)
- Really made translated header widths work (I tested it this time! :) )
(Closes: #114401)
- Corrected a misspelling in the options dialog (Closes: #120887)
- Fixed a misspelling in de.po (Closes: #123644)
- Fixed a minor display bug when a package category was both longer
than the width of the display, and the last item on the display.
(Closes: #123652)

2001
aptitude (0.2.8.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- Matcher added for packages which are not depended upon. (bug #122726)
Not closing the bug, as there is more to do in this area.
- The pause after downloading is now optional. (Closes: #120873)
- Package data moved to /var/lib. (FHS fix -- the package ought to
handle the transition properly) (Closes: #122334)
- Fixed description of the "comm" section to show that it's not just
faxmodems. (Closes: #121951)
- The descriptions of "j" and "k" were reversed in the help text.
(so it said that "j" moved up and "k" moved down) This has been fixed.
(Closes: #122061)
- Updated pt_BR with patch from Andre Luis Lopes <andrelop@ig.com.br>.
(Closes: #122251)

aptitude (0.2.8-2) unstable; urgency=low
* Backported patch to improve incsearch behavior: it now reverts to the starting location if an invalid (or, eg, null) pattern is provided.
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Thu, 22 Nov 2001 11:14:46 -0500
aptitude (0.2.8-1) unstable; urgency=low

aptitude (0.2.7.999-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
- Doesn't crash if tasksel is missing, and Recommends tasksel.
(Closes: #120578)
- Correctly uses translated column widths.
(Closes: #114401)
* Never mind, aptitude wasn't added to base after all. (too close to
freeze) Bugfixing like mad anyway; Thanksgiving vacation only happens
once a year!
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Wed, 21 Nov 2001 21:08:55 -0500
aptitude (0.2.7.3-2) unstable; urgency=low

-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Wed, 21 Nov 2001 15:04:13 -0500
aptitude (0.2.7.3-1) unstable; urgency=low

- Reference to ~a/~A in README fixed. (Closes: #116695)
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Tue, 20 Nov 2001 21:30:36 -0500
aptitude (0.2.7.2-1) unstable; urgency=high
* New upstream release
- Should run at a decent speed on low-memory systems again.
(Closes: #116750)
- "f" is mentioned in mine-help.txt (Closes: #120251)
* Urgency high because aptitude was just added to base (woohoo!) and
base freezes very soon (bummer) and the efficiency issue above will
make aptitude virtually unusuable on many older systems. (bleach)

-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Thu, 13 Sep 2001 12:20:34 -0400
aptitude (0.2.6-1) unstable; urgency=low
* The "deity is kaput" upload. I was going to wait until the previous
upload went into testing, but deity is not being fixed and not being
fixed...which seems to be keeping the new apt and thus the new aptitude
out of testing. Bleah.
* New upstream release
- Fixed the situation with Default-Grouping being undocumented and
overriding the preview grouping. Closes: #110704
- Fixed matching with ~ahold and ~areinstall. Closes: #111466
- It's tempting to close 104092, because the categorical browser
has bad lynx-like bindings...but they suck and aren't consistent
with the rest of the program. So there.
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Sat, 8 Sep 2001 21:30:39 -0400
aptitude (0.2.5.3-3) unstable; urgency=high
* The "hey, Mr. Testing Bot, please move my code soon!" upload.
* Backported fixes from CVS:
- Deleted some nasty debug code that didn't compile on ia64.
(Closes: #110438)
- Finally found and fixed the (simple and stupid) bug that was
preventing autoclean-on-update from working properly.
(Closes: #108565)
* Urgency high. Yes, this is an evil hack. But these changes will
not break aptitude, and I intend to upload a version containing massive
changes as soon as this is safely in testing.
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Thu, 30 Aug 2001 10:24:28 -0400
aptitude (0.2.5.3-2) unstable; urgency=low
* The "A pox on deity-devel@debian.org" upload. * So the deity folks kindly went and bumped the soname, thus breaking all software compiled against previous versions. So aptitude has to be recompiled. (and I was so close to getting into testing, too.. :( ) Closes: #109449
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Tue, 21 Aug 2001 19:15:41 -0400
aptitude (0.2.5.3-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
- Oops, getopt_long returns an int, not a char. Storing it in an int
lets the program compile on ppc. (Closes: #107525)
- Added a #include that's needed to compile on the Hurd. (Closes: #107672)
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Mon, 6 Aug 2001 16:52:44 -0400
aptitude (0.2.5.2-1) unstable; urgency=low

- Hopefully, the endianness issues on alpha are now fixed, although

throttle me.. (Closes: #106588)

-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Tue, 24 Jul 2001 00:08:18 -0400
aptitude (0.2.5-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- Multi-CD installs work. Closes: #104236
- When editing the grouping policy, the current policy is displayed
as a default. Closes: #103962
- Replaced the welcome dialog box with a less obtrusive list of
keybindings at the top of the screen. Closes: #104483
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Mon, 23 Jul 2001 09:14:54 -0400
aptitude (0.2.4-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release.
- Compiles and seems to work with g++-3.0. Closes: #104723
* DH_COMPAT=2, so we really build on potato/Progeny. (I don't even know
offhand what DH_COMPAT=3 does, but it doesn't seem to be important for this)
Also, only build-depend on debhelper >=2.0.0.
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Thu, 19 Jul 2001 09:59:17 -0400
aptitude (0.2.3-1) unstable; urgency=medium
* New upstream release
- Media-change messages should now fit on the screen (a better
fix is still needed)
- The package list will retain its selection upon being resized.
Closes: #103963
- Fixed a crash triggered by a word in a package description
longer than the width of the screen. (libhtml-munger-perl was
the culprit) Closes: #103961
- Mark broken dependencies using text as well as color. Closes: #79047
- Make the menubar visible when no screen is active, even if it's set
to autohide. Closes: #102918
- Changing a package's status should advance to the next package.
Closes: #104209
- aptitude can now automatically become root (with the root password,
of course) -- I believe this should address the issue of starting it
from the Debian menu. Closes: #71948
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Wed, 11 Jul 2001 12:15:11 -0400

aptitude (0.2.1-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release
- CD-ROM installs should work now. Closes: #98956
- Really fixed signedness issues. Closes: #101398,#101504
- Options are autosaved now. Closes: #102599
* Maintainer address changed to @debian.org
* Removed beta-software warnings from the package description.
-- Daniel Burrows <dburrows@debian.org> Thu, 28 Jun 2001 15:24:15 -0400
aptitude (0.2.0-1) unstable; urgency=low
* New upstream release. This is still missing a few things -- in
particular, some translators haven't caught up yet.
* This one goes into unstable. Much rejoicing (I hope)
* libsigc++-dev added to Build-Depends, since we need it now.
* I believe that the code to prevent installation from proceeding
while packages are broken will avoid these situations where the
problem resolver does stuff behind the user's back.
Closes: #87774, #96559
* Most of the code has been rewritten. If these old bugs and
crashes are still around, it's pure coincidence, and I can't reproduce
any of them. (I suspect they weren't even present in the latest 0.0.x
revision)
Closes: #60156, #63358
* I believe that all known problems with displaying dependencies have
been addressed. Closes: #68628
* I'm sure that aptitude purges itself completely by now. Closes: #66711
* The download progress screen has been rewritten, and will now scroll
to keep the currently downloading item in view. Closes: #69131
* Errors are now collected into a single big dialog box, so even if
there are hundreds, there's no confusion about whether the program
crashed. (incidentally, I still can't figure out where this
"tried to dequeue a fetching object" comes from) Closes: #71314
* Essential: yes packages are now hard to remove (at least when you
first select them..if they get removed by the problem resolver, you
won't get asked, but that should be hard to do. Closes: #86115
* I think most of the problems with bad search patterns are finally
fixed (knock on wood) This one is, at least. Closes: #95455
* I believe that the restructuring of the UI also eliminated the
occasional crashes when installing from an info screen. (knock on
wood again) Closes: #100187
* Fixed the signed-char problems from 0.1.9. Closes: #101398
* The rewritten download progress screen should report 404 errors. At
least, it works for me.. Closes: #102109
* You can now ask aptitude to run an autoclean operation after updating
the package lists (which I think is the right time to do it)
Closes: #97653
* Prompt-On-Exit has been fixed since 0.1.9. Closes: #101394
* This includes Michal Politowski's new Polish translations.
Closes: #101403

aptitude (0.1.3-1) experimental; urgency=low
* New upstream version. This will go into experimental as "aptitude";
aptitude-beta is now an empty package depending on it. (I was holding
this out of experimental because apt wasn't up to handling
experimental nicely and because it wasn't really even up to that.
Both reasons are no longer valid. Hence this goes into experimental)
* Add build-depends, and don't install INSTALL.
(was in stable, but I missed fixing it here)
