Apart from fixing bug 1573547, it also updates translations fixes the following other bugs: [[1.2.13]] Segmentation fault fixes: * fail instead of segfault on unreadable config files (Closes: 824503) Fixes for 3rd party programs using libapt and C++ locale API: * prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIs (Closes: #825396) Fix for hurd (not really affecting us here, but upstream): * apt-key: change to / before find to satisfy its CWD needs. Thanks to Samuel Thibault for 'finding' the culprit! (Closes: 826043) Leak fixes: * do not hang on piped input in PipedFileFdPrivate * don't leak an FD in lz4 (de)compression * don't leak FD in AutoProxyDetect command return parsing [[1.2.14]] Regression fix from 1.2.13: * do not error if auto-detect-proxy cmd has no output (Closes: 827713) Huge apt-ftparchive performance regression fix from 1.1: * Reinstate caching of file hashes in apt-ftparchive (Closes: #806924) Tiny bug fixes, about 2 lines each: * source: if download is skipped, don't try to unpack * ensure filesize of deb is included in the hashes list [Test case] The releases follow new upstream micro release rule and thus are assumed to be tested by our integration test suite. There are two exceptions which cannot be tested: * prevent C++ locale number formatting in text APIs * apt-key: change to / before find to satisfy its CWD needs The first has no affected code in the archive (but maybe 3rd party code), the second only affects hurd. [Regression Potential] Very low. The release has been tested by a thorough integration test suite on Travis CI, Debian autopkgtests, and has been in Debian unstable since 2016-06-22.
