+Some debhelper commands will automatically generate parts of Debian
+maintainer scripts. If you want these automatically generated things
+included in your existing Debian maintainer scripts, then you need to add
+B<#DEBHELPER#> to your scripts, in the place the code should be added.
+B<#DEBHELPER#> will be replaced by any auto-generated code when you run
+B<dh_installdeb>.
+
+If a script does not exist at all and debhelper needs to add something to
+it, then debhelper will create the complete script.
+
+All debhelper commands that automatically generate code in this way let it
+be disabled by the -n parameter (see above).
+
+Note that the inserted code will be shell code, so you cannot directly use
+it in a Perl script. If you would like to embed it into a Perl script, here
+is one way to do that (note that I made sure that $1, $2, etc are set with
+the set command):
+
+ my $temp="set -e\nset -- @ARGV\n" . << 'EOF';
+ #DEBHELPER#
+ EOF
+ system ($temp) / 256 == 0
+ or die "Problem with debhelper scripts: $!";
+
+=head2 Automatic generation of miscellaneous dependencies.
+
+Some debhelper commands may make the generated package need to depend on
+some other packages. For example, if you use L<dh_installdebconf(1)>, your
+package will generally need to depend on debconf. Or if you use
+L<dh_installxfonts(1)>, your package will generally need to depend on a
+particular version of xutils. Keeping track of these miscellaneous
+dependencies can be annoying since they are dependent on how debhelper does
+things, so debhelper offers a way to automate it.
+
+All commands of this type, besides documenting what dependencies may be
+needed on their man pages, will automatically generate a substvar called
+B<${misc:Depends}>. If you put that token into your F<debian/control> file, it
+will be expanded to the dependencies debhelper figures you need.
+
+This is entirely independent of the standard B<${shlibs:Depends}> generated by
+L<dh_makeshlibs(1)>, and the B<${perl:Depends}> generated by L<dh_perl(1)>.
+You can choose not to use any of these, if debhelper's guesses don't match
+reality.
