2017-10-08Push the removal of some deprecated items to compat 12Niels Thykier1-2/+2
The change list for compat 11 is rather intimidating as it is currently. Move some of the clean up to compat 12 to reduce the list a bit. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-07-07Dh_Lib: Embed tool versions into auto-generated snippetsNiels Thykier1-3/+6
Use $main::VERSION to determine the version of the tool and embed that into auto-generated snippets (e.g. via autoscript). This enables lintian to extract the tool + version and display it on: https://lintian.debian.org/tags/debhelper-autoscript-in-maintainer-scripts.html Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-06-26doc/PROGRAMMING: Correct doc of on_items_in_parallelNiels Thykier1-3/+3
Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-06-26Dh_Lib: Rename sub to on_items_in_parallelNiels Thykier1-4/+10
Turns out that the sub is not specific to packages, so rename it to make it more self-descriptive (and to avoid making consumers to believe it is more limited than it is). Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

2017-04-08doc/PROGRAMMING: Correct log_installed_filesNiels Thykier1-2/+7
After testing, it became apparent that dh_missing + log_installed_files behaved slightly different than first anticipated. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>
2017-04-08Move dh_install’s --{list,fail}-missing to dh_missingMichael Stapelberg1-0/+4
This commit splits dh_install’s --list-missing and --fail-missing functionality into the separate helper dh_missing. To make this work, dh_install logs its source patterns and dh_missing reads these patterns, treating them as installed. This allows us to address #415396, i.e. recognize files installed by other helpers (e.g. dh_installman) as installed. Signed-off-by: Niels Thykier <niels@thykier.net>

This reverts commit b418f73de540dcc3c050c935dab90eed23fe610c. While dpkg-gencontrol does the right thing, dpkg-deb does not realise it is building a udeb.
