Hi!

Recently, Santiago uploaded an unpatched build of apt by mistake. Which means
that installing the apt 0.5.25 binary that has been in the gnuab archive will
break apt on your system.

If your installed apt is 0.5.25, you'll have to install 0.5.25+kbsd manualy.
In case you don't know where to look, you can fetch it from:

  http://ftp.gnuab.org/debian/pool/main/a/apt/

Santiago: I've sent the patch to BTS and will be applied on next debian
upload, so you don't need to exclude apt from your autobuilds now.
