3 * Moved a few things around that were broken by Che's patch:
4 - dh_installdirs should go in install target.
5 - dh_clean should not run in binary targets.
6 * This is just a quick fix to make it work, I'm not happy with it. I'm
7 going to discuss my problems with it with Che, and either make a new
8 version fixing them, or revert to 0.83.
9 * So be warned that the example rules files are not currently in good
10 shape if you're starting a new package.

293 first package listed in debian/control, if you use -p to make it act on
294 a given package, or -i or -a.
295 * If you take advantage of the above new behavior, I suggest you add
296 "dh_testversion 0.50" to your debian/rules.
297 * Display a warning message in cases where the above behavior is triggered,
298 and debhelper's behavior has altered.

300 is not going to affect any packages currently in debian.

302 away several more calls to dpkg-parsechangelog.

522 debhelper (0.10) unstable; urgency=medium
524 * dh_installdebfiles: fixed *bad* bug that messed up the names of all
525 files installed into DEBIAN/ for multiple binary packages.
526 * dh_md5sums: fixed another serious bug if dh_md5sums was used for
527 multiple binary packages.
528 * If you have made any multiple binary packages using debhelper, you
529 should rebuild them with this version.
530 * dh_md5sums: show cd commands in verbose mode.

548 debhelper (0.7) unstable; urgency=low
550 * Sped up some things by removing unnecesary for loops.
551 * dh_installdocs: behavior modifcation: if there is a debian/TODO, it is
552 named like a debian/changelog file: if the package is a debian native
553 package, it is installed as TODO. If the package is not a native package,
554 it is installed as TODO.Debian.
555 * dh_installdocs: handle debian/README.Debian as well as
556 debian/README.debian.
557 * Added dh_undocumented program, which can set up undocumented.7 symlinks.
558 * Moved dh_installdebfiles to come after dh_fixperms in the example rules
559 files. (dh_installdebfiles makes sure it installs things with the proper
560 permissions, and this reorganization makes the file a bit more flexable
561 in a few situations.)

565 debhelper (0.6) unstable; urgency=low

584 debhelper (0.3) unstable; urgency=low

590 -- Joey Hess <joeyh@master.debian.org> Fri, 26 Sep 1997 21:52:53 -0400
592 debhelper (0.2) unstable; urgency=low
594 * Moved out of unstable, it still has rough edges and incomplete bits, but
595 is ready for general use.
596 * Added man pages for all commands.
597 * Multiple binary package support.
598 * Support for specifying exactly what set of binary packages to act on,
599 by group (arch or noarch), and by package name.
600 * dh_clean: allow specification of additional files to remove as
602 * dh_compress: fixed it to not compress doc/package/copyright
603 * dh_installmanpage: allow listing of man pages that should not be
604 auto-installed as parameters.
605 * dh_installdebfiles: make sure all installed files have proper ownerships
607 * dh_installdebfiles: only pass ELF files to dpkg-shlibdeps, and pass .so
610 * dh_compress: changed behavior - debian/compress script is now run inside
611 the package build directory it is to act on.
612 * Added dh_lib symlink in debian/ so the debhelper apps used in this
613 package's debian/rules always use the most up-to-date db_lib.
614 * Changed dh_cleantmp commands in the examples rules files to dh_clean.

621 ready to replace debstd.
