<title>Upgrading checklist</title>
<section id="about">
<title>About the checklist</title>
<para>
The checklist below has been created to simplify the upgrading
process of old packages. This list is not official or normative.
It only provides an indication of what has changed and whether you
are likely to need to make changes to your package in light of this.
If you have doubts about a certain topic, if you need more details,
or if you think some other package does not comply with policy,
please refer to the Policy Manual itself.
</para>
<para>
All of the changes from version 3.0.0 onwards indicate which section
of the Policy Manual discusses the issue. The section numbering
should still be accurate for changes back to the 2.5.0 release.
Before that point, the sections listed here probably no longer
correspond to sections in the modern Policy Manual.
</para>
<para>
Here is how the check list works: Check which policy version your
package was checked against last (indicated in the
<literal>Standards-Version</literal> field of the source package).
Then move upwards until the top and check which of the items on the
list might concern your package. Note which sections of policy
discuss this, and then check out the Policy Manual for details.
Once you've made all necessary changes to match the current rules,
update the value of <literal>Standards-Version</literal> to the
current Policy Manual version.
</para>
<para>
The sections in this checklist match the values for the
<literal>Standards-Version</literal> control field in omitting the
minor patch version, except in the two anomalous historical cases
where normative requirements were changed in a minor patch release.

<para>
Priorities are now used only for controlling which packages
are part of a minimal or standard Debian installation and
should be selected based on functionality provided directly to
users (so nearly all shared libraries should have a priority
of <literal>optional</literal>). Packages may now depend on
packages with a lower priority.
</para>
<para>
The <literal>extra</literal> priority has been deprecated and
should be treated as equivalent to
<literal>optional</literal>. All <literal>extra</literal>
priorities should be changed to <literal>optional</literal>.
Packages with a priority of <literal>optional</literal> may
conflict with each other (but packages that both have a
priority of <literal>standard</literal> or higher still may
not conflict).
