Please sync apt 0.9.7.7 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
  * merged from the debian-sid branch
  [ Program translation updates ]
  * Catalan (Jordi Mallach)
  * Drop a confusing non-breaking space. Closes: #691024
  * Thai (Theppitak Karoonboonyanan). Closes: #691613
  * Vietnamese (Trần Ngọc Quân). Closes: #693773
  * Fix Plural forms in German, French, Japanese and Portuguese
    translations. Thanks to Jakub Wilk for reporting these errors.
  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * change permissions of /var/log/apt/term.log to 0640 (LP: #975199)
  * Revert build-dependency from gettext:any to gettext, now that gettext is
    Multi-Arch: foreign.
  * Fix mismerge of cross-build-dependency handling patch from
    0.8.16~exp12ubuntu7.
  * Fix comment char in /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/01autoremove-kernels to
    use C++ style comments instead of POSIX shell style (LP: #1076237)
  * Fix up two things in debian/apt.auto-removal.sh:
    - Use exact matches with $-terminated regexes, so we don't get
      confusion between similarly-named kernel flavours.
    - Keep linux-backports-modules in sync with installed kernels.

  * merged from debian-sid
  [ Program translation updates ]
  * Catalan (Jordi Mallach)
  * Drop a confusing non-breaking space. Closes: #691024
  * Thai (Theppitak Karoonboonyanan). Closes: #691613
  [ David Kalnischkies ]
  * apt-pkg/packagemanager.cc:
    - do not do lock-step configuration for a M-A:same package if it isn't
      unpacked yet in SmartConfigure and do not unpack a M-A:same package
      again in SmartUnPack if we have already configured it (LP: #1062503)
  [ Steve Langasek ]
  * debian/apt.conf.autoremove: don't include linux-image*,
    linux-restricted-modules*, and linux-ubuntu-modules* packages in the
    list to never be autoremoved.
  * debian/apt.auto-removal.sh, debian/rules, debian/apt.dirs: install new
    script to /etc/kernel/postinst.d/ which ensures we only automatically
    keep the currently-running kernel, the being-installed kernel, and the
    newest kernel, so we don't fill /boot up with an unlimited number of
    kernels.  LP: #923876.


Changelog entries since current raring version 0.9.7.6ubuntu6:

apt (0.9.7.7) unstable; urgency=low

  [ Program translation updates ]
  * Catalan (Jordi Mallach)

      unpacked yet in SmartConfigure and do not unpack a M-A:same package
      again in SmartUnPack if we have already configured it (LP: #1062503)
  * apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
    - don't call MarkInstall with the FromUser flag set for packages
      which are dependencies of APT::Never-MarkAuto-Sections matchers
    - no mode changes should obviously be ok for pkgDepCache::IsModeChangeOk
  * cmdline/apt-get.cc:
    - do not call Mark{Install,Delete} from the autoremove code with
      the FromUser bit set to avoid modifying the auto-installed bit
  * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
    - ensure pkgProblemResolver calls MarkDelete without FromUser set
      so that it can't overrule holds and the protection flag
  
  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * change permissions of /var/log/apt/term.log to 0640 (LP: #975199)

  [ Jonathan Thomas ]
  * apt-pkg/algorithms.cc:
    - fix package-pointer array memory leak in ResolveByKeepInternal()
