Summary
-------
"aptitude update" with German locale fails,
subsequent "LC_ALL=C aptitude update" succeeds.

Prior to workaround the problem with LC_ALL=C, aptitude and apt-get
are COMPLETELY unusable.  Lesser experienced users with German locale
will be unable to use aptitude and apt-get any more.
--> Severity important.

 apt (0.7.15~exp3) experimental; urgency=low
 .
   [Daniel Burrows]
   * apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
     - Store the trigger state descriptions in a way that does not break
       the ABI.  The approach taken makes the search for a string O(n) rather
       than O(lg(n)), but since n == 4, I do not consider this a major
       concern.  If it becomes a concern, we can sort the static array and
       use std::equal_range().  (Closes: #499322)
 .
   [ Michael Vogt ]
   * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc, apt-pkg/deb/dpkgpm.cc:
     - move the state file writting into the Go() implementation
