apt 0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.25 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

apt (0.8.16~exp12ubuntu10.25) precise; urgency=medium

  * Backport patches from David Kalnischkies to fix crashes with dynamic
    cache remapping (LP: #957231):
    - Do not dereference the storage for the unique strings as the pointer
      can change at the time of writing the strings, so first store it
      temporary and then save the index in the (possibly new) pointer
      location
    - Handle moved mmap after UniqFindTagWrite call (Closes: #753941)
