+debhelper (2.0.22) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Checked all of debhelper into CVS.
+ * Removed Test.pm (we have perl 5.005 now)
+ * Skip CVS dir when running tests.
+ * Since CVS is so brain dead about symlinks, added a debian/fixlinks script.
+ Modified debian/rules to make sure it's run if any of the symlinks are
+ missing. Also, made Makefile a short file that sources debian/rules so
+ it's always available.

+
+ * Wow. It turns out dh_installdocs has been doing it wrong and doc-base
+ files have the doc-id inside them. Applied and modified a patch from
+ Peter Moulder <reiter@netspace.net.au> to make it use those id's instead
+ of coming up with it's own. (Closes: #42650)

+
+ * dh_compress: compress changelog.html files. (Closes: #40626)
+ * dh_installchangelogs: installs a link from changelog.html.gz to changelog.gz,
+ because I think it's important that upstream changelogs always be accessable
+ at that name.
+ * dh_compress: removed the usr/share/X11R6/man bit. Note part of FHS.

+
+debhelper (2.0.09) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_compress: added some FHS support. Though debhelper doesn't put stuff
+ there (and won't until people come up with a general transition strategy or
+ decide to not have a clean transiotion), dh_compress now compresses
+ various files in /usr/share/{man,doc,info}. (Closes: #40892)

+
+debhelper (2.0.04) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Patch from Raphael Hertzog <rhertzog@hrnet.fr> to make dh_perl support a
+ -d flag that makes it add a dependancy on the sppropriate perl-XXX-base
+ package. Few packages will really need this. (Closes: #40631)

+
+debhelper (2.0.03) unstable; urgency=low

+
+debhelper (2.0.02) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * If you're going to use v2, it's reccommended you call
+ "dh_testversion 2". Added a note about that to doc/v2.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm compat: if a version that is greater than the highest
+ supported compatability level is specified, abort with an error. Perhaps
+ there will be a debhelper v3 some day...
+

+
+debhelper (2.0.00) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Don't let the version number fool you. Debhelper v2 is here, but just
+ barely. That's what all the zero's mean. :-)
+ * If DH_COMPAT=2, then debian/<package> will be used for the temporary
+ build directory for all packages. debian/tmp is no more! (Well, except
+ dh_movefiles still uses it.)
+ * debhelper.1: documented this.
+ * Dh_lib.pm: added compat(), pass in a number, it returns true if the
+ current compatability level is equal to that number.
+ * doc/PROGRAMMING: documented that.
+ * debhelper itself now builds using DH_COMPAT=2.
+ * dh_debstd forces DH_COMPAT=1, because it needs to stay compatable with
+ debstd after all.
+
+ -- Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> Thu, 1 Jul 1999 13:37:58 -0700
+
+debhelper (1.9.00) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * This is a release of debhelper in preparation for debhelper v2.
+ * doc/v2: added, documented status of v2 changes.
+ * README: mention doc/v2
+ * debhelper.1: docuimented DH_COMPAT
+ * examples/*: added DH_COMAPT=1 to top of rules files
+

+debhelper (1.2.83) unstable; urgency=medium
+
+ * dh_perl: fixed substvars typo. Urgency medium since a lot of people will

+
+debhelper (1.2.82) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_installinit: applied patch from Yann Dirson <ydirson@multimania.com>
+ to make it look for init.d scripts matching the --init-script parameter.
+ This is only useful if, like Yann, you have packages that need to install
+ more than 1 init script.

+
+debhelper (1.2.79) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Added dh_perl by Raphael Hertzog <rhertzog@hrnet.fr>. dh_perl handles
+ finding dependancies of perl scripts, plus deleting those annoying
+ .packlist files.
+ * I don't think dh_perl is going to be useful until the new version of
+ perl comes out.

+
+debhelper (1.2.76) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_fixperms: Do not use chmod/chown -R at all anymore, instead it uses
+ the (slower) find then chown method. Necessary because the -R methods will
+ happyily attempt to chown a dangling symlink, which makes them fail.
+ (Closes: #38911)

+debhelper (1.2.74) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_installmanpages: recognizes gzipped man pages and installs them.
+ This is an experimental change, one problem is if your man page isn't
+ already gzip-9'd, it will be in violation of policy. (closes: #38673)
+ * The previous fix to dh_installemacsen was actually quite necessary - the
+ x bit was being set!

+
+debhelper (1.2.73) unstable; urgency=low

+ well. (Closes: 38900)
+
+ -- Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> Thu, 3 Jun 1999 14:50:42 -0700
+
+debhelper (1.2.72) unstable; urgency=low
+

+
+ -- Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> Thu, 3 Jun 1999 14:16:57 -0700

+
+debhelper (1.2.68) unstable; urgency=low

+ help from Julian Gilbey.
+ * dh_link: generate absolute symlinks where appropriate. The links
+ generated before were wrong simetimes (#37774)
+ * Started writing a regression test suite for debhelper. Currently covers
+ only the above bugfix and a few more dh_link tests.
+ * Tossed Test.pm into the package (for regression tests) until we get perl
+ 5.005 which contains that package. That file is licenced the same as perl.

+ * dh_installexamples: rewritten in perl.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: all multiple package operations were broken.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: implemented complex_doit() and autoscript().
+ * Made all perl code work with use strict and -w (well, except
+ dh_getopt.pl, but that's a hack that'll go away one day).
+ * I didn't realize, but rewriting dh_installdocs in perl fixed bug #24686
+ (blank lines in debian/docs file problem), although this same problem
+ applies to other debhelper programs... like dh_installexamples, which had
+ the same bug fixed when I rewrote it in perl just now.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: accidentially didn't check DH_VERBOSE if commands were not
+ passed any switches.
+ * Dh_Getopt.pm: --noscripts was broken.

+ * Added dh_debstd, which mimics the functionality of the debstd command.
+ It's not a complete nor an exact copy, and it's not so much intended to
+ be used in a debian/rules file, as it is to be run by hand when you are

+ * dh_debstd is completly untested, I don't have the source to any packages

+ debhelper to build.
+ * dh_{installdirs,installdocs,installexamples,suidregieter,undocumented}:
+ behavior modification - any files/directories specified on the command
+ line now apply to the first package acted on. This may not be the
+ first package listed in debian/control, if you use -p to make it act on
+ a given package, or -i or -a.

+ "dh_testversion 0.50" to your debian/rules.

+ and debhelper's behavior has altered.
+ * I have grepped debian's source packages, and I'm quite sure this
+ is not going to affect any packages currently in debian.

+ away several more calls to dpkg-parsechangelog.

+ perl script.
+ * dh_installinit: A hack to work around the problem in getopt(1) that

+ not a flag will be presumed to be part of the -u flag. Yuck.
