This is the new, preferred way 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. + + -- Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org> Sat, 26 Jan 2002 23:30:51 -0500 + debhelper (3.4.3) unstable; urgency=low * Improved dh_installxfonts some more: |
