From 229fb1a3a35bade26cfff373087461d7a98aade3 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001
From: Julian Andres Klode <jak@debian.org>

Subject: * apt-pkg/contrib/weakptr.h:   - add a class WeakPointable which
 allows one to register weak pointers to     an object which will be set to
 NULL when the object is deallocated. * [ABI break]
 apt-pkg/acquire{-worker,-item,}.h:   - subclass
 pkgAcquire::{Worker,Item,ItemDesc} from WeakPointable.
