* Add versioned dependency on base-files (>= 5.0.0) to dpkg-dev to ensure
that /etc/dpkg/origins/default exists. Closes: #545274
* Update Standards-Version to 3.8.3 (no changes needed).
+ * Major changes to the perl API:
+ - Dpkg::Control is now Dpkg::Control::Info
+ - Dpkg::Cdata is gone and is replaced by a new Dpkg::Control
+ - Dpkg::Control::Fields contains authoritative information
+ about fields allowed in various types of control information
+ (and can be customized by each vendor). It also integrates
+ information that was previously available through Dpkg::Deps.
+ * All dpkg-* perl programs that work with control information have been
+ updated to use the new Dpkg::Control interface.
[ Updated dpkg translations ]
