dpkg (1.1.6); priority=MEDIUM

  * Check virtual dependencies when removing (ouch! - thanks SDE.)
  * Fixed bug in internal database validity management that could
    make dselect and dpkg dump core.  (Bug#2613.)
  * Fixed two coredumping bugs when using local diversions.  (Bug#2804.)
  * Fixed disappearance of overwritten packages.  (Bug#2696.)
  * install-info won't modify dir file before start of menu.
  * install-info will create Miscellaneous heading if no sections yet.

  * Only alphanums and +-. allowed in package names - enforced by
    dpkg-deb --build and documented in Guidelines.
  * dselect doesn't display packages unless they are installed, selected
    or available.
  * dselect doesn't show spurious section and priority headings.
  * dselect has a few extra keybindings (from Lee Olds).
  * --force message changed to `--force enabled' so that default is OK.

  * dpkg-name now includes architecture component in .deb filename,
    and translates - in package name to _.
  * .deb file has architecture component in filename.

  * Guidelines changed to say Pre-Depends is for experts only.
  * Guidelines say to provide a unidiff (-u) rather than an old context diff.
  * Guidelines say 755 root.root for shared libraries.
