We would like to release a new apt that brings a ton of improvements
but also breaks the ABI (and has some small API change that affects
aptitude and packagekit, see below).
We prepared the package in experimental and double checked the rdepends
in an ubuntu PPA. There are some small and mostly internal API changes
as well. The affected packages were aptitude, synaptic and
packagekit. All of those have fixes ready for libapt-pkg5.0. Synaptic
just needs a rebuild, aptitude and packagekit are ready for upload and
will get uploaded by their maintainers once apt is in unstable.
Thanks,
Michael
