            APT_HAS_TRIGGERS, APT_HAS_HOMEPAGE and HAVE_DDTP (apt supports them
            since 2007-2008).
          * Add functions to check if packages are installed, automatically
            installed, if they are virtual, and others.  They can be used later
            to make other code more consistent, clear and clean.
          * Remove sigc++ include from apt_config_widgets.h (fails to build
            with newer version 2.6 recently uploaded to unstable)
    
        - Documentation:

    aptitude (0.7.2-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release. Please see /usr/share/aptitude/NEWS for a change
        log with more details.

          * Extend "firstchar" grouping policy to optionally use source

            #328616) The behaviour of scheduled aptitude actions will be
            preserved.
    
        - Bug fixes:
          * Disable strings gathered for translation (Closes: #790568)
          * Change to try to make updated status stats more clear (Closes:

          * [cmdline] Correctly print when a package should be purged (Closes:
            #798286)

        - Internal changes:

            implementation advice.
          * New helper dpkg_selections.{h,cc}, to help to manage saving
            selections to the dpkg database (--set-selections)
    
        - Documentation:
          * Guide/User's Manual: Remove grouping policy "hier" from

        by Lintian.

    aptitude (0.7.1-1) unstable; urgency=medium
    
      * New upstream release.
        - Bug fixes:
          * Fix for wrong reported size of deleted files with 'autoclean' on
            32-bit arches (Closes: #499872)
          * Be explicit when packages are already installed, cannot be
            removed/purged because they are not installed, and similar
            (Closes: #421469).
          * Check string formats for columns in both curses and command line
            interface, and forbid characters which can lead to cwidget
            assertions and program crashes.  (Closes: #497129, #532662).
        - Documentation:
          * Quick help (help.txt):
            * Document 'l' (Limit Display) in quick help (Closes: #514541)
            * Improve description of '_' (Purge) (Closes: #495326)
            * Improve the description of the search shortcut, and point more
              clearly to search patterns in the full documentation
          * man page:
            * Fix example of '-F' with current and candidate versions
              (Closes: #752517)
          * Guide/User's Manual:
            * Upgrade doc/??/aptitude.xml documents from DocBook XML 4.2 to
              4.5
            * Use XHTML 1.0 rather than HTML 4.01, at least to have something
              from this decade/century.  The resulting documentation still
              does not fully validate (see #496724), I think that due to
              bugs/problems of docbook-xsl conversions using invalid elements in
              the different standards (tried HTML 4.0, 4.01, XHTML 1.0 and 1.1).
            * Generate 'alt' tag for images in HTML documentation (see #496724)
            * In "Customizing the package list", fix order of variables
              ::UI::Package-Status-Format and ::UI::Package-Header-Format and
              their explanations
        - User visible changes:
          * Slightly change description of shortcut 'g' in title bar
            (Closes: #247487)
        - Internal changes:
          * search_graph.h, fix problem with code which was working for many
            years (with boost 1.55 and many versions before), but now the
            straightforward option to convert boost::optional to bool does not
            work with gcc-5.2 and boost-1.58, so use .is_initialized() instead.
          * solution_item.cc, copy string of package name coming from libapt
            because it does not guarantee that the string is valid for all of the
            time span that we need it, to not show garbage that it happens
            sometimes (Closes: #795150, #795028)
          * match.cc, pkg_info_screen.cc, reason_fragment.cc: remove and
            modify code relying on pkg.Section() (from apt PkgIterator), it is
            deprecated code and it will get removed soon according to the apt team
            (Versions have Sections, Package in abstract doesn't have unique
            Sections)
          * aptitude_resolver.cc: use std::unique_ptr instead of deprecated
            SPtrArray
          * Add compatibility for APT 1.1:
            * Create DepIterator values from Dependency pointers on-the-fly,
              where required
            * Adjust AcqQueuedFile() for changed signatures of overriden
              methods
          * Improving C++11 compatibility mode:
            * Convert std::auto_ptr (deprecated in C++11) to unique_ptr
            * Convert boost::scoped_ptr (deprecated in C++11) to std::unique_ptr
            * Convert instances of boost::shared_ptr, make_shared, and
              weak_ptr to be explicitly prefixed by boost::, otherwise they clash
              or have problems compiling with the new C++11 std::shared_ptr and
              analogues (many were not converted in the previous version).
          * Remove unused function serialize_pattern_list()
          * Remove unused function wcsempty()
          * Improvements of the autoconf/automake infrastructure.
           * No more generate a dummy ChangeLog file just to please automake.
           * Clean up some more leftover files in "make maintainer-clean"
           * Use 'cp -u' when copying gtest and gmock, so they don't need to be
             recompiled every time
        - Translation updates:
          * Swedish by Josef Andersson (Closes: #792911)
          * Fix typos/syntax oddities and translation issues, thanks Jens Seidel
           (Closes: #381702)
    
      * Disable patches, now in the upstream release:
        - 05-cherry-pick-3593bdcb.patch
        - 10-cherry-pick-2a5a8b25.patch
        - 15-cherry-pick-4b24b358.patch

      [ Manuel A. Fernandez Montecelo ]
      * New upstream release.
        - Changes in the versioning scheme and changelog (to follow loosely
          the Semantic Version specification)
        - Feature removal: The content-wise outdated and
          not-multiarch-compatible categorical browser has been removed. The
          Debtags browser has replaced most of its functionality already. Local
          package groups are no more available, though.  The removal discussion
          has taken place in #686646. (Closes: #686124, #686142, #686646 as
          well as LP: #1082198).
        - Changes to allow to compile with C++11 compatibilty mode (prompted by
          changes in the toolchain in Debian) (Closes: #777778)
        - Fix reported installed size change when installing/deinstalling
          packages which are bigger than 2 GiB (int type size 32 bits).  Thanks
          Benny Baumann and Jason Rhinelander for the report and info, and Sven
          Joachim for the patch.  (Closes: #759769)
        - Changes in automake files to be able to use current automake
          versions.
        - Documentation:
          - Previously missing trigger-related package states are now
            documented. (Closes: #770073, #771305, #771704)
          - Minesweeper: Fixed save/load keybindings in help.
            (Closes: #736934)
        - Translation updates:
          - Czech by Miroslav Kure (Closes: #758226)
          - Russian by Yuri Kozlov (Closes: #760812)
          - German man page translation by Mario Blättermann and
            Jens Seidel (Closes: #762340)
          - Catalan by Orestes Mas (Closes: #771618)
          - French documentation translation by Cédric Boutillier
            (Closes: #773807)
          - Italian documentation translation by Beatrice Torracca
            (Closes: #776706)
          - Dutch by Frans Spiesschaert (Closes: #778425)
    
      [ Axel Beckert ]
      * Apply wrap-and-sort.
      * No more install files related to the categorical browser.
      * Update Vcs-Browser header to use cgit and HTTPS.
      * Declare compliance with Debian Policy 3.9.6. (No changes needed.)
      * debian/rules:
        + Remove override_dh_builddeb: xz compression is default nowadays.
        + Remove obsolete x from [ "x$var" != "x" ] comparisons.
      * Add myself to Uploaders.
      * Cherry-pick 3593bdcb, 2a5a8b25, and 4b24b358 from upstream to cope
        with Boost 1.58 which has been uploaded to unstable during the
        libstdc++6 transition, but after the 0.7 upstream release.
      * Temporarily bump g++ dependency from 4:3.2.2-0 to 4:5.2 for the
        gcc-5/libstdc++6 transition.
      * Add build-dependency on automake.
