          NeverAutoRemove settings from having an effect (Closes: #598452)

        - if apt-cdrom is used on writable media (like usb-sticks), do
          not use the root directory to identify the medium (as all

          instead

      * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
        - create Dir::Log if needed to support /var/log as tmpfs or similar,
          inspired by Thomas Bechtold, thanks! (Closes: #523919, LP: #220239)
