* Use -x to test for existance of init scripts, rather then -e since
we'll be running them, Closes: #109692
* dh_clean: remove debian/*.debhelper. No need to name files
specifically; any file matching that is a debhelper temp file.

data in a file. Substvars data may be put in debian/package.substvars.
(Those files used to be used by debhelper for automatically generated
data, but it uses a different internal filename now). It will be merged
with any automatically determined substvars data. See bug #98819
* I want to stress that no one should ever rely in internal, undocumented
debhelper workings. Just because debhelper uses a certian name for some
internally used file does not mean that you should feel free to modify
that file to your own ends in a debian package. If you do use it, don't
be at all suprised when it breaks. If you find that debhelper is lacking
a documented interface for something that you need, ask for it!
(debhelper's undocumented, internal use only files should now all be
prefixed with ".debhelper")

packages that contain suid binaries should include the binaries suid in
the .deb, and dpkg-statoverride can override this. If this is done
to a program that previously used suidmanager, though, you need to
conflict with suidmanager (<< 0.50).
* Made dh_suidmanager check to see if it would have done anything before.
If so, it states that it is obsolete, and refer users to the man
page, which now explains the situation, and then aborts the build.
If it would have done nothing before, it just outputs a warning that
it is an obsolete program.

- Various debian/foo files like debian/docs, debian/examples, etc,
begin to support filename globbing. use \* to escape the wildcards of
course. I doubt this will bite anyone (Debian doesn't seem to contain
files with "*" or "?" in their names..), but it is guarded by v3 just
to be sure. Closes: #34120, #37694, #39846, #46249

README.Debian,
after I learned people use it for eg, documenting the source package
itself. Closes: #34628, since it seems this is not such an "incredibly
minor" change after all. Never underetimate the annoyance of
backwards-compatability.

turn on by default for fear of breaking backwards compatability:
- dh_makeshlibs makes the postinst/postrm call ldconfig. Closes: #77154
Patch from Masato Taruishi <taru@debian.org> (modified). If you
use this, be sure dh_makeshlibs runs before dh_installdeb; many
old rules files have the ordering backwards.
- dh_installdeb now causes all files in /etc to be registered as
conffiles.
- debian/README is now supported: it is treated exactly like
debian/README.Debian. Either file is installed as README.Debian in
non-native packages, and now as just README in native packages.
Closes: #34628
* This is really only the start of the changes for v3, so use with
caution..
* dh_du has finally been removed. It has been deprecated for ages, and
a grep of the archive shows that nothing is using it except biss-awt
and scsh. I filed bugs on both almost exactly a year ago. Those bugs
should now be raised to severity important..
* --number option (to dh_installemacsen) is removed. It has been
deprecated for a while and nothing uses it. Use --priority instead.

Closes: #75434
* Whoops, I think I overwrote bod's NMU with 2.2.15. Let's merge those
in:
.
debhelper (2.1.14-0.1) unstable; urgency=low
.
* Non-maintainer upload (thanks Joey).
* dh_installchangelogs, dh_installdocs: allow dangling symlinks for
$TMP/usr/share/doc/$PACKAGE (useful for multi-binary packages).
Closes: #53381

I also added some documentation to debhelper.1 about this, and removed
the TODO entry about it.

debian/package.filename. Closes: #69453
* Added a section to debhelper(1) about files in debian/ used by
debhelper, which documents this. Removed scattered references to
debian/filename from all over the man pages.

changes I hoped to get in that broke backwards compatability. 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).

modified)to make dh_installwm use new window manager registration method,
update-alternatives. Closes: #52156, #34684 (latter bug is obsolete)
* Fixed $dh{flavor} to be upper-case.
* Deprecated dh_installemavcsen --number; use --priority instead. Also,
the option parser requires the parameter be a number now. And,
dh_installwm now accepts --priority, and window manager packages should
start using it.
* dh_installwm now behaves like a proper debhelper command, and reads
debian/<package>.wm too. This is a small behavior change; filenames
specified on the command line no longer apply to all packages it acts
on. I can't belive this program existed for 2 years with such a glaring
problem; I guess most people don't need ot register 5 wm's in 3
sub-packages. Anyway, it can handle such things now. :-)
* Moved Dh_*.pm to /usr/lib/perl5/Debian/Debhelper. *big* change.

one package in unstable, biss-awt, which has had a bug filed against it for
200+ days now asking that it stop using the program. dh_installdebfiles has
been depreacted for nearly 2 years now..

act on files that don't exist.
* dh_installchangelogs: to comply with policy, if it's told to act on a
html changelog, it installs it as changelog.html.gz and dumps a plain
text version to changelog.gz. The dumping is done with lynx.
(Closes: #51099)
* Dh_Getopt.pm: Modified it so any options specified after -- are added to
U_PARAMS. This means that instead of passing '-u"something nasty"' to
dh_gencontrol and the like, you can pass '-- something nasty' without
fiddling to get the quoting right, etc.

perl5 for regression testing, the rest of its build-deps are things
in base.
* dh_version.1: Added note that this program is quickly becoming obsolete.
* doc/README, doc/from-debstd: Added reminders that if you use debhelper,
you need to add debhelper to your Build-Depends line.

LD_LIBRARY_PATH is then set to when dpkg-shlibdeps is run. This
should make it easier for library packages that also build binary
packages to be built with correct dependancies. Closes: #36751
* In honor of Burn all GIFs Day (hi Don!), I added alternative
image formats .png, .jpg (and .jpeg) to the list of extentions dh_compress
does not compress. Closes: #41733
* Also, made all extentions dh_compress skips be looked at case
insensitively.
* dh_movefiles: force owner and group of installed files to be root.
Closes: #46039
* Closes: #42650, #47175 -- they've been fixed forever.

For the most part, this was a straight-forward substitution,
dh_installmanpages needed a non-obvious change though.
* Closes: #42489, #42587, #41732.
* dh_installdocs: Adds code to postinst and prerm as specified in
http://www.debian.org/Lists-Archives/debian-ctte-9908/msg00038.html,
to make /usr/doc/<package> a compatability symlink to
/usr/share/doc/<package>. Note that currently if something exists in
/usr/doc/<package> when the postinst is run, it will silently not make
the symlink. I'm considering more intellingent handing of this case.
* Note that if you build a package with this version of debhelper, it will
use /usr/share/man, /usr/share/doc, and /usr/share/info. You may need to
modify other files in your package that reference the old locations.
