Title:
  apt-pkg API differs from the one in Debian

Status in “apt” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid
Status in “apt” package in Debian:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apt

  The API for methods in the apt-pkg library differs from the one in
  Debian. This causes my new apt-transport-debtorrent method to FTBFS on
  Ubuntu, and would require me to maintain separate packages for Ubuntu
  and Debian, when they should be identical. There has already been a
  bug reported in Debian indicating this:

  http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=452001

  It seems the problem is mostly in the use of a SetFailExtraMsg()
  function on Debian, while Ubuntu's apt uses SetFailReason().
