  * apt-file: Strip Contents header without discarding results (Closes: #676642)
  * apt-file: Restructure --help output.

    make it possible to only search in (e.g.) Debian/unstable even if
    other origins or/and suites are downloaded.
  * apt-file.1: Clarify that --config-file and --option can be used to
    overwrite other command line parameters.

  [ Paul Wise ]

apt-file (3.1.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * apt-file: Fix off-by-one causing "uninitialized value"
    warning.  Thanks to Paul Wise for reporting the issue.
    (Closes: #838296)
  * apt-file: Use "apt-get" instead of "apt" for the update
    command if STDOUT is not a TTY.  This is to avoid a
    warning from apt about it being unsuitable for scripts.

apt-file (3.1) unstable; urgency=medium

    in legacy locations (as used by Ubuntu) by default.  This

    in the apt config file.  Thanks to Cyril Brulebois for the
    suggestion (part of #825293)

    given, apt-file will search all of its indices.  Thanks to
    Cyril Brulebois for the suggestion (part of #825293).
  * debian/NEWS: Clarify that the indices for source packages and
    udebs are disabled in the apt-file 2 -> 3 transition.  These
    must be manually reabled.  Thanks to Cyril Brulebois for the
    report.  (Closes: #825293)
  * apt-file: Exit with an error if a subprocess exits non-zero
    (except for grep) or is killed by a signal.  Thanks to

  * Set debhelper compat to "beta-tester" and bump the minimum
    requirements for debhelper to 10.

  * apt-file-2-update.sh: Fix a bug in --uninstall, where it would

apt-file (3.0~exp3) experimental; urgency=medium

  * Add versioned Breaks on command-not-found and apt-venv.
  * apt-file(.pod): Expand and document the exit codes used by

    using APT's acquire system.  Thanks to Jakub Wilk for
    the report.  (Closes: #809264)
  * Fix invalid warning about subprocess exiting uncleanly on
    no matches.  The grep(1) process is expected to exit non-zero
    in such cases and apt-file now gracefully handles that.
    Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the report.  (Closes: #809261)
  * Remove suggests on sudo, which is not used directly in
    apt-file.  Thanks to Jakub Wilk for the report.

apt-file (3.0~exp) experimental; urgency=medium

  * BACKWARDS INCOMPATIBLE CHANGES:
    - diffindex-download and diffindex-rred has been removed!
      (Closes: #788780)
    - apt-file now exit with non-zero exit code when the
      query results in no matches.  (Closes: #505222)
    - apt-file no longer supports "personal" caches on its
      own.
    - apt-file show (a.k.a. list) now looks up only an exact
      package name by default.  To retain the previous
      behaviour, please use the new --substring-match option.
    - Special uses of "-a" to search in Source packages or
      udebs have been replaced by "--index-names".
    - apt-file now uses "gnu-getopt" option style parsing.
      Notably this means that "+" cannot be used for options
      any longer.
  * Rewrite apt-file to use apt's new acquire system.  By using
    apt, apt-file:
    - makes apt refresh the Contents files.
      (Closes: #476401, #594879)
    - now understands "non-release" lines.  (Closes: #297707)
    - no longer sends "double" requests.  (Closes: #663417)
    - now validates downloads correctly.  (Closes: #515942)
    - can resume downloads (like apt).  (Closes: #594879)
    - now respects Acquire::http::Dl-Limit.  (Closes: #525631)
    - supports deb822 sources.list file.  (Closes: #740978)
    - supports tor+http protocol (Closes: #764349)
    - supports "mirror" protocol (Closes: LP: #888316,
      LP: #1156717, LP: #1395988)
    - respects APT proxy settings (Closes: LP: #817517,
      LP: #767061)
    - now silently accepts that not all mirrors have Contents
      files (Closes: LP#567895, LP#619659).
    (Closes: #752292)
  * Expand the README a bit to give a quick introduction to
    apt-file and indices.
  * Rewrite the manpage from docbook to POD format.
  * Update dependency lists due to the above rewrites.
  * Remove the old apt-file cache on upgrade.  This means that
    users will have to run "apt update" after upgrading.
  * Update the "is-cache-empty" and "do-apt-file-update"
    scripts.
  * Rewrite d/rules to use debhelper "tiny" and bump the
    compat level 9.
  * Add --substring-match option to apt-file.
  * Update bash completions to match the changes.
  * Install bash-completions in their new location and drop
    old bash-completion conffile.
