That + development stalled after only the most important change was made, + although I did get out over 100 releases in the debhelper 2.0.x tree. + In the meantime, lots of packages have switched to using v2, despite my + warnings that doing so leaves packages open to being broken without + notice until v2 is complete. + * Therefore, I am calling v2 complete, as it is. Future non-compatabile + changes will happen in v3, which will be started soon. This means that + by using debhelper v2, one major thing changes: debhelper uses + debian/<package> as the temporary directory for *all* packages; + debian/tmp is no longer used to build binary packages out of. This is + very useful for multi-binary packages, and I reccommend everyone + switch to v2. + * Updated example rules files to use v2 by default. + * Updated all documentation to assume that v2 is being used. + * Added a few notes for people still using v1. + * Moved all of the README into debhelper(1). + + -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Tue, 18 Jul 2000 15:48:41 -0700 + debhelper (2.0.104) unstable; urgency=low * Put dh_installogrotate in the examples, Closes: #66986 |
