You tell it what to install and it figures out where + based on .TH section field and filename extention. I reccommend everyone + begin using it, since this is much better then dh_installmanpages's + evilness. I've been meaning to do this for a very long time.. + Closes: #38673, #53964, #64297, #16933, #17061, #54059, #54373, #61816 + * dh_installmanpages remains in the package for backwards compatability, + but is mildly deprecated. + * dh_testversion is deprecated; use build dependancies instead. + * Since dh_debstd requires dh_installmanpages (where do you think the + latter's evil interface came from?), I have removed it. It was a nice + thought-toy, but nobody really used it, right? + * Since the from-debstd document walks the maintainer through running + dh_debstd to get a list of debhelper commands, and since that document + has really outlives its usefullness, I removed it too. Use dh-make + instead. + * dh_installman installs only into /usr/share/man, not the X11R6 + directory. Policy says "files must not be installed into + `/usr/X11R6/bin/', `/usr/X11R6/lib/', or `/usr/X11R6/man/' unless this + is necessary for the package to operate properly", and I really doubt + a man page being in /usr/share/man is going to break many programs. + Closes: #81853 (I hope the bug submitter doesn't care that + dh_installmanpages still puts stuff in the X11R6/man directory.) + * Since with the fixing of the man page installer issue, my checklist for + debhelper v3 is complete, I pronounce debhelper v3 done! Revved the + version number appropriatly (a large jump; v3 changes less than I had + planned). + * Tonnes of changes here and there to mark v3 as done. I don't have a + v4 planned at this time. All the big changes are done. + * Updated to current perl coding standards (use strict; -w; lower-case + variable names). No perl-5.6isms though. +*** to make the version number a little more justified, turn on 'use +strict' throughout.. --- DONE up to dh_perl, not including it**** +*** move man pages into programs as pod docs *** +*** add something to allow specification of the options each program takes, +make them ignore other options, and be able to display usage help *** +*** fix aj's bug, sigh *** + + -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Thu, 8 Feb 2001 14:29:58 -0800 + debhelper (2.2.21) unstable; urgency=low * Fixed a stupid typo in dh_suidregister, Closes: #85110 |
