Changes: 
 debconf (1.5.2ubuntu1) edgy; urgency=low
 .
   * Resynchronise with Debian.
 .
 debconf (1.5.2) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Colin Watson ]
   * Stop the Gnome and Kde frontends from displaying select questions with
     zero or one choices, or multiselect questions with zero choices; this
     was broken due to an error in multiple inheritance (thanks, Gary Coady;
     closes: https://launchpad.net/bugs/42187).
 .
   [ Joey Hess ]
   * debconf-get-selections: Don't skip notes or errors, people may want to
     preseed those.
 .
 debconf (1.5.1) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Colin Watson ]
   * Remove trailing whitespace from some .P requests in man pages, to make
     po4a happier.
   * Strip only trailing newlines from replies in the Python confmodule,
     rather than all leading and trailing whitespace.
   * Retry readline() in the Python confmodule if it's interrupted by a
     signal.
   * Typo fixes in Debconf::Encoding documentation.
   * Add cloexec keyword argument to Python DebconfCommunicator class,
     defaulting to False; if True, the file descriptors connected to
     debconf-communicate will be marked close-on-exec.
   * Avoid needlessly marking cache db items dirty on addowner if the entry
     already had that owner.
   * Add a --no-reload option to dpkg-reconfigure, to allow you to prevent it
     from reloading templates before running confmodules. This may be useful
     for performance if you know that the templates database is already
     correct.
   * Handle escaped commas ("\,") and escaped spaces ("\ ") in Choices and
     Value fields in questions, matching cdebconf. I've grepped the archive
     for backslashes in Choices fields in templates and in db_set and
     db_subst commands and found nothing that this change would break, while
     it lets us use more code from d-i in the installed system.
 .
   [ Joey Hess ]
   * Stop mailing notes since something like 90% of the use of that data type
     is abuse anyway. Error messages will still be mailed if necessary.
   * In the gnome and kde frontends, exit 1 not 0 when cancel is hit.
 .
 debconf (1.5.0) unstable; urgency=low
 .
   [ Colin Watson ]
   * Define UTF-8 as the encoding for all passthrough communication (it was
     previously undefined, causing installer breakage when using non-UTF-8
     locales). Now the passthrough frontend recodes everything to UTF-8 when
     talking to the UI agent, and we recode DATA parameters from UTF-8 to the
     user's charmap. Closes: #355251
   * Note that if you try to exchange non-ASCII text with debconf at the
     moment using anything but the DATA command, you lose unless you know
     that the other end is using the same character encoding as you.
     Retrofitting encoding sanity is hard.
   * Accept -- as an end-of-options terminator in frontend, even though it
     doesn't currently take any arguments. Simplifies a corner case in
     cdebconf compatibility.
   * Notice and error out on write errors (such as ENOSPC) when saving
     databases. Should help with a lot of database corruption bugs.
     Closes: #198297, #247849 (we hope)
 .
   [ Christian Perrier ]
   * Rename the Punjabi translation file name from pa_IN to pa
     to fit a decision taken in -i18n
   * Man pages translations:
     - French updated
     - Complete translator information in addenda
 .
   [ Luk Claes ]
   * Translations:
     - Arabic updated programs (Closes: #357010).
     - Arabic updated debconf (Closes: #360584).
     - Brazilian Portuguese updated debconf (Closes: #357653).
     - Romanian updated programs (Closes: #361152).
     - Romanian updated debconf (Closes: #361157).
     - Indonesian updated programs (Closes: #361185).
   * Fixed typo in French debconf-devel manpage (Closes: #358525).
   * Small correction in German programs translation (Closes: #358804).
 .
   [ Joey Hess ]
   * Finally applied Danilo Piazzalunga's gnome multiselct usability patch,
     which turns it into a list of checkboxes. Closes: #294116
   * Set maintainer to debconf-devel mailing list, this package is noticably
     Colin^Wteam maintained now. Closes: #265570
