      after them).

  [ Michael Vogt ]

      detect a interrupted dpkg (the famous
     "E: dpkg was interrupted, you must manually run 'dpkg --configure -a'")
  * merged lp:~kiwinote/python-apt/merge-gdebi-changes, this port the
    DebPackage class fixes from gdebi into python-apt so that gdebi can
    use the class from python-apt directly
  * apt/debfile.py:

      packages
    - fix py3 compatibility

    - add automatic test based on the test debs from gdebi
  * python/progress.cc:
    - deal with missing return value from the acquire progress in pulse()

  [ Martin Pitt ]
  * tests/test_apt_cache.py: Test accessing the record of all packages during
    iteration. This both ensures that it's well-formatted and structured, and
    also that accessing it does not take an inordinate amount of time. This
    exposes a severe performance problem when using gzip compressed package
    indexes.
  * apt/cache.py: When iterating over the cache, do so sorted by package name.
    With this we read the the package lists linearly if we need to access the
    package records, instead of having to do thousands of random seeks; the
    latter is disastrous if we use compressed package indexes, and slower than
    necessary for uncompressed indexes.

  [ Julian Andres Klode ]
  * Re-enable Python 3 support for latest python-default changes (hack).
