preinst and postinst scripts. For example, if a package uses
dh_pysupport before dh_installinit, the prerm will first stop the init
script and then remove the python files.
* Introducing beginning of v6 mode.
* dh_installwm: In v6 mode, install a slave manpage link for
x-window-manager.1.gz. Done in v6 mode because some window managers
probably work around this longstanding debhelper bug by registering the
slave on their own. This bug was only fixable once programs moved out of
/usr/X11R6. Closes: #85963
* dh_builddeb: In v6 mode, fix bug in DH_ALWAYS_EXCLUDE handling, to work
the same as all the other code in debhelper. This could only be fixed in
v6 mode because packages may potentially legitimately rely on the old
buggy behavior. Closes: #242834
* dh_installman: In v6 mode, overwrite exsiting man pages. Closes: #288250

best of
a difficult situation.
* Revert all dh_python changes. Closes: #381389, #378604
* Conflict with python-support << 0.5.3 and python-central << 0.5.5.
* Make dh_python do nothing if debian/pycompat is found.
The new versions of dh_pysupport or dh_pycentral will take care of
everything dh_python used to do in this situation.
* dh_python is now deprecated. Closes: #358392, #253582, #189474
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Update of dh_python
- when buidling for a non-standard Python version, generate more
reasonable Depends like "python (>= X.Y) | pythonX.Y"
Closes: #375576
- fix handling of private extensions. Closes: #375948
- fix parsing of XS-Python-Version, it didn't work if only fixed versions
were listed in XS-Python-Version.
- fix use of unitialized value. Closes: #374776
- fix typos in POD documentation. Closes: #375936
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Update of dh_python
- vastly refactored, easier to understand, and the difference
between old policy and new policy is easier to grasp
- it supports an -X option which can be used to not scan some files
- uses debian/pyversions as reference source of information for
dependencies but also parse the XS-Python-Version header as fallback.
- ${python:Versions}'s default value is XS-Python-Version's value
instead of "all" when the package doesn't depend on a
specific python version. Closes: #373853
- always generate ${python:Provides} and leave the responsibility to the
maintainer to not use ${python:Provides} if he doesn't want the
provides.
- uses debian/pycompat or DH_PYCOMPAT as reference field to run in new
policy mode. The presence of XS-Python-Version will also trigger the
new policy mode (this is for short-term compatibility, it may be removed in
the not too-distant future).
DH_PYCOMPAT=1 is the default mode and is compatible to the old policy.
DH_PYCOMPAT=2 is the new mode and is compatible with the new policy.
* Use "grep ^Version:" instead of "grep Version:" on the output of
dpkg-parsechangelog since the above changelog entry matched "Version:" and
thus made the build fail.
* Non-maintainer upload.
* Integrate the new dh_python implementing the new Python policy. Closes: #370833

"\\.", which turns into "\." after being run through the shell, and
prevents find from treating -X.svn as a regexp that matches files such
as foo/svn.vim. (It's safe to do this now that all uses of EXCLUDE_FIND are
via complex_doit(), which was not the case of dh_clean when this change
was originally made.) Closes: #349070

set up maintainer script snippets, w/o installing any files.
Useful for those edge cases where the init script is provided by upstream
and not easily installed by dh_installinit but where it's worth letting
it manage the maintainer scripts anyway. Closes: #140881, #184980
* -o might be added for other similar commands later if there is any
reason to. And yeah, it means that -no is close to a no-op..

schemas from /etc/gconf/schemas. (Josselin Mouette)
* dh_gconf: kill gconfd-2 so that the newly installed schemas
are available straight away. (Josselin Mouette)
* dh_gconf: fix bashism in restart of gconfd-2
* dh_gconf: fix innaccuracy in man page; gconfd-2 is HUPPed, not
killed.
* dh_scrollkeeper: stop adding scrollkeeper to misc:Depends, since
the postinst will not run it if it's not installed, and a single run after
it's installed is sufficient to find all documents. Closes: #256745
* dh_fixperms: make .ali files mode 444 to prevent recompilation by GNAT.
For speed, only scan for .ali files in usr/lib/ada. Closes: #245211
* dh_python: check to make sure compileall.py is available before running it
in the postinst. Closes: #253112
* dh_installmodules: install debian/package.modprobe into etc/modprobe.d/
for module-init-tools. These files can sometimes need to differ from the
etc/modutils/ files. Closes: #204336, #234495
* dh_installmanpages is now deprecated.
* Add a test case for bug #244157, and fixed the inverted ok() parameters
in the others, and added a few new tests.
* dh_link: applied GOTO Masanori's patch to fix conversion of existing
relative symlinks between top level directories. Closes: #244157

"XC-Package-Type: udeb" in debian/control. See debhelper(1) for
details.
* Dh_Lib: add and export is_udeb and udeb_filename
* dh_builddeb: name udebs with proper extension
* dh_gencontrol: pass -n and filename to dpkg-gencontrol
* dh_installdocs, dh_makeshlibs, dh_md5sums, dh_installchangelogs,
dh_installexamples, dh_installman, dh_installmanpages: skip udebs
* dh_shlibdeps: skip udebs. This may be temporary.
* dh_installdeb: do not process conffiles, shlibs, preinsts, postrms,
or prerms for udebs. Do not substiture #DEBHELPER# tokens in
postinst scripts for udebs.
* dh_installdebconf: skip config script for udebs, still do templates

* dh_scrollkeeper: Make postinst fragment test for scrollkeeper-update.

* Copyright update.
* Include full text of the GPL in the source package, because goodness

Closes: #112950
* dh_compress: deal with links pointing to links pointing to compressed
files, no matter what order find returns them. Closes: #204169
* dh_installmodules, dh_installpam, dh_installcron, dh_installinit,
dh_installogrotate: add --name= option, that can be used to specify
the name to use for the file(s) installed by these commands. For example,
dh_installcron --name=foo will install debian/package.foo.cron.daily to
etc/cron.daily/foo. Closes: #138202, #101003, #68545, #148844

from debstd, its interface and implementation suck, and I have maintained
it while never really deigning to use it. Now there is a remplacment:
dh_install, which ...
- copies files, doesn't move them. Closes: #75360, #82649
- doesn't have that whole annoying debian/package.files vs. debian/files
mess, as it uses debian/install.
- supports copying empty subdirs. Closes: #133037
- doesn't use tar, thus no error reproting problems. Closes: #112538
- files are listed relative to the pwd, debian/tmp need not be used at
all, so no globbing issues. Closes: #100404
- supports -X. Closes: #116902
- the whole concept of moving files out of a directory is gone, so this
bug doesn't really apply. Closes: #120026
- This is exactly what Bill Allombert asked for in #117383, even though I
designed it seemingly independantly. Thank you Bill! Closes: #117383
* Made debhelper's debian/rules a lot simpler by means of the above.
* Updated example rules file to use dh_install. Also some reordering and
other minor changes.
* dh_movefiles is lightly deprecated, and when you run into its bugs and
bad design, you are incouraged to just use dh_install instead.
* dh_fixperms: in v4 only, make all files in bin/ dirs +x. Closes: #119039
* dh_fixperms: in v4 only, make all files in etc/init.d executable (of
course there's -X ..)
* dh_link: in v4 only, finds existing, non-policy-conformant symlinks
and corrects them. This has the side effect of making dh_link idempotent.
* Added a -h/--help option. This seems very obvious, but it never occured to
me before..
* use v4 for building debhelper itself
* v4 mode is done, you may now use it without fear of it changing.
(This idea of this upload is to get v4 into woody so people won't run into
many issues backporting from sarge to woody later on. Packages targeted
for woody should continue to use whatever compatability level they are
using.)

works.
I had to modify his patch to use cp --parents, since -P spews warnings
now. Also, I made it continue to use cp -a if nothing is excluded,
which is both faster, and means this patch is less likely to break
anything if it turns out to be buggy. Also, stylistic changes.
Closes: #40649
* Implemented -X for dh_installexamples as well.
* dh_clean -X substvars will also work now. Closes: #66890

to say
what debhelper compatability level your package uses. It has the big
advantage of being available to debhelper when you run it at the command
line, as well as in debian/rules.
* A new v4 feature: dh_installinit, in v4 mode, will use invoke-rc.d.
This is in v4 for testing, but I may well roll it back into v3 (and
earlier) once woody is released and I don't have to worry about breaking
things (and, presumably, once invoke-rc.d enters policy).
* Some debhelper commands will now build up a new substvars variable,
${misc:Depends}, based on things they know your package needs to depend
on. For example, dh_installinit in v4 mode adds sysvinit (>= 2.80-1) to
that dep list, and dh_installxfonts adds a dep on xutils. This variable
should make it easier to keep track of what your package needs to depends
on, supplimenting the ${shlibs:Depends} and ${perl:Depends} substvars.
Hmm, this appears to be based loosely on an idea by Masato Taruishi
<taru@debian.org>, filtered through a long period of mulling it over.
Closes: #76352
* Use the addsubstvar function I wrote for the above in dh_perl too.

jump), and it
is only for the very brave right now since I will unhesitatingly break
compatability in v4 mode as I'm developing it. Currently, updating to v4
mode will only make dh_makeshlibs -V generate shared library deps that
omit the debian part of the version number. The reasoning behind this
change is that the debian revision should not typically break binary
compatability, that existing use of -V is causing too tight versioned
deps, and that if you do need to include the debian revision for some
reason, you can always write it out by hand. Closes: #101497
* dh_testversion is deprecated -- use build deps instead. A warning message
is now output when it runs. Currently used by: 381 packages.
* dh_installxaw is deprecated -- xaw-wrappers in no longer in the
distribution. A warning message is now output when it runs. Currently used
by: 3 packages (bugs filed).
* Added referneces to menufile in dh_installmenu man page. Closes: #127978
(dh_make is not a part of debhelper, if you want it changed, file a bug on
dh-make.)

* Use -x to test for existance of init scripts, rather then -e since

data in a file. Substvars data may be put in debian/package.substvars.
(Those files used to be used by debhelper for automatically generated
data, but it uses a different internal filename now). It will be merged
with any automatically determined substvars data. See bug #98819
* I want to stress that no one should ever rely in internal, undocumented
debhelper workings. Just because debhelper uses a certian name for some
internally used file does not mean that you should feel free to modify
that file to your own ends in a debian package. If you do use it, don't
be at all suprised when it breaks. If you find that debhelper is lacking
a documented interface for something that you need, ask for it!
(debhelper's undocumented, internal use only files should now all be
prefixed with ".debhelper")

packages that contain suid binaries should include the binaries suid in
the .deb, and dpkg-statoverride can override this. If this is done
to a program that previously used suidmanager, though, you need to
conflict with suidmanager (<< 0.50).
* Made dh_suidmanager check to see if it would have done anything before.
If so, it states that it is obsolete, and refer users to the man
page, which now explains the situation, and then aborts the build.
If it would have done nothing before, it just outputs a warning that
it is an obsolete program.

- Various debian/foo files like debian/docs, debian/examples, etc,
begin to support filename globbing. use \* to escape the wildcards of
course. I doubt this will bite anyone (Debian doesn't seem to contain
files with "*" or "?" in their names..), but it is guarded by v3 just
to be sure. Closes: #34120, #37694, #39846, #46249
