The packages themselves have always worked but the 'tasks' grouping policy and '?task' search term did not support them. This update corrects for this. As a result of this change to tasksel all Debian tasks now function exactly like meta-packages. (Closes: #382631) The syntax for installing tasks from the command line has been updated. It now supports specifying an arch and requires the same syntax as apt-utils ('^' must be the last part of the name). Examples: # aptitude install gnome-desktop^ # aptitude install ssh-server^:armel This avoids ambiguity that may arise when a task and package have the same name. - Changelog downloading is restored (Closes: #669569, LP: #824708) - Exit with non-zero status when a package run is aborted.

This was a rather unsightly kludge is better suited as a script for APT::Update::Post-Invoke. - Use arch-qualified names in 'Provided by' for virtual packages (LP: #972847) - Preview screen ignores Pkg-Display-Limit Previously it would apply that limit if UI::Preview-Limit was not set.

I'm not sure that running aptitude without the Xapian index will actually work yet, but this will make it easy for people to test it out. (Closes: #516719) * Remove the no-longer-necessary recommendation of libparse-debianchangelog-perl; aptitude uses dpkg-parsechangelog now. * Add build dependencies on libboost-iostreams-dev and libboost-test-dev. * Change the description of aptitude-gtk to warn users that it's an experimental release. * Only install the "move the old aptitude state directory to the right place" stanza in the core aptitude package, rather than duplicating it in every preinst. * Make lintian stop complaining: - Bumped Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes relevant to aptitude). - Tighten the debhelper Build-Dep to require 5.0.0. - Use set -e in the preinst script. -- Daniel Burrows Tue, 08 Sep 2009 21:23:11 -0700 aptitude (0.5.3.1-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release. - Don't crash the GTK+ interface when displaying a solution that cancels the installation of a package.

I know that using su-to-root is not ideal, but since aptitude-gtk can't be used to install / remove packages unless it's run as root, this is probably a good interim approach.

(Closes: #143051) - Merged updated Finnish translations from Jaakko Kangasharju . - Included information about aptitude's CVS in the README (Closes: #141371) - Fixed the dangling reference to SEARCHING in the manpage (Closes: #142651) -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 21 Apr 2002 23:53:49 -0400 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 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 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 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) -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 17 Feb 2002 10:44:57 -0500 aptitude (0.2.9.3-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Compiles with g++-3 again. (Closes: #133250) - Really include aptitude.pl.1 (Closes: #114396) -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 10 Feb 2002 16:02:24 -0500 aptitude (0.2.9.2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - ~ahold now does the Right Thing[tm]. (Closes: #126800) -- Daniel Burrows Sat, 9 Feb 2002 15:53:38 -0500 aptitude (0.2.9.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release -- Daniel Burrows 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) -- Daniel Burrows Sat, 9 Feb 2002 11:24:08 -0500 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 . (Closes: #122251) -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 9 Dec 2001 16:51:30 -0500 aptitude (0.2.8-4) unstable; urgency=high * Rebuild to kill the stray config.cache that somehow snuck into the Debian diff. (Closes: #122890) Urgency=high to get this RC fix safely into woody. -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 9 Dec 2001 09:48:38 -0500 aptitude (0.2.8-3) unstable; urgency=low * Backported patch from Falk Hueffner to fix segfaults and crashes on alpha. (Closes: #114270) -- Daniel Burrows Wed, 28 Nov 2001 12:46:30 -0500 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 Thu, 22 Nov 2001 11:14:46 -0500 aptitude (0.2.8-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Better documents what '/' does with no special search terms. (Closes: #120592) -- Daniel Burrows Thu, 22 Nov 2001 10:56:10 -0500 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 Wed, 21 Nov 2001 21:08:55 -0500 aptitude (0.2.7.3-2) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed a silly typo which made search histories (for instance) not work right. -- Daniel Burrows Wed, 21 Nov 2001 15:04:13 -0500 aptitude (0.2.7.3-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - pl translation finally merged (took way too long) (Closes: #114396) - Reference to ~a/~A in README fixed. (Closes: #116695) -- Daniel Burrows 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 Tue, 20 Nov 2001 20:07:59 -0500 aptitude (0.2.7.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 1 Oct 2001 15:41:21 -0400 aptitude (0.2.7-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Supports the Task: header. (Closes: #113567) -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 1 Oct 2001 15:06:50 -0400 aptitude (0.2.6.5-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - workaround for g++ on arm. Hopefully this will make aptitude buildable on all archs. -- Daniel Burrows Sat, 22 Sep 2001 19:40:09 -0400 aptitude (0.2.6.4-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Fixed the loading of keybindings. (Closes: #112306) -- Daniel Burrows Sat, 15 Sep 2001 08:34:35 -0400 aptitude (0.2.6.3-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release. - Unbroke the 'level_next' and 'auto-advance' features. (Closes: #112267) -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 14 Sep 2001 17:55:39 -0400 aptitude (0.2.6.2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release -- Daniel Burrows Thu, 13 Sep 2001 19:31:31 -0400 aptitude (0.2.6.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Downloads work again. (mea culpa; Closes: #111950) - Translations are back in the package (Closes: #111904) -- Daniel Burrows 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 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 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 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 Mon, 6 Aug 2001 16:52:44 -0400 aptitude (0.2.5.2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release. - Hopefully, the endianness issues on alpha are now fixed, although I suppose there's a chance they'll reach out from the grave to throttle me.. (Closes: #106588) -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 27 Jul 2001 20:27:43 -0400 aptitude (0.2.5.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - The horrible, ugly, terrible, never-should-have-happened-in-a-megayear bug which caused most line-entries to crash has been fixed. Mea culpa. (Closes: #106378) -- Daniel Burrows 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 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 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 Wed, 11 Jul 2001 12:15:11 -0400 aptitude (0.2.2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream release - Default widths are now modifiable by the translator. Closes: #101406 -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 29 Jun 2001 14:36:57 -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 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 -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 25 Jun 2001 19:43:27 -0400 aptitude (0.1.9-2) experimental; urgency=low * Clobber some unnecessary files (the package build now replaces them with symlinks) (Closes: #10388) -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 18 Jun 2001 20:43:01 -0400 aptitude (0.1.9-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release * This is probably going to be the last release before 0.2.0 (the version numbers worked out conveniently for once); please tell me if you think there are bugs which need to be fixed before I release this for general use! -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 18 Jun 2001 08:50:34 -0400 aptitude (0.1.8-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 15 Jun 2001 10:11:09 -0400 aptitude (0.1.7-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream release -- Daniel Burrows Mon, 4 Jun 2001 23:25:41 -0400 aptitude (0.1.6-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream version. -- Daniel Burrows Thu, 3 May 2001 21:07:39 -0400 aptitude (0.1.5-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream version. - addresses bug #95455, dealing with bad search patterns and reported by William Steve Applegate ) -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 27 Apr 2001 22:29:52 -0400 aptitude (0.1.4-1) experimental; urgency=low * New upstream version. -- Daniel Burrows Tue, 10 Apr 2001 08:13:57 -0400 aptitude (0.1.3-2) experimental; urgency=low * Make the extended description less inflammatory, and fix dumb indentation. -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 23 Mar 2001 20:28:34 -0500 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) -- Daniel Burrows Fri, 23 Mar 2001 17:54:26 -0500 aptitude (0.1.2-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version (many changes, see NEWS) -- Daniel Burrows Wed, 21 Feb 2001 21:19:16 -0500 aptitude (0.1.1-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version (many changes, of course..) -- Daniel Burrows Tue, 30 Jan 2001 09:08:09 -0500 aptitude (0.1.0-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. -- Daniel Burrows Sun, 3 Dec 2000 22:49:59 -0500 aptitude (0.0.7.12-1) unstable; urgency=low * New upstream version. Installation of a single package without affecting others is now (slightly hackily) supported; it can't be done in a much better way, unfortunately, although a few improvements will happen in the future.
