Comment 3 for bug 613211

This bug was fixed in the package apt - 0.7.26~exp12ubuntu4

---------------
apt (0.7.26~exp12ubuntu4) maverick; urgency=low

  [ Julian Andres Klode ]
  * apt-pkg/contrib/fileutl.cc:
    - Add WriteAtomic mode.
    - Revert WriteEmpty to old behavior (LP: #613211)
  * apt-pkg, methods:
    - Convert users of WriteEmpty to WriteAtomic.
  * apt-pkg/depcache.cc:
    - Only try upgrade for Breaks if there is a newer version, otherwise
      handle it as Conflicts (by removing it) (helps for #591882).

  [ Michael Vogt ]
  * debian/control:
    - Add recommends on gnupg to apt, apt-key uses it.
      (changed from debian)
