+debhelper (7.9.1) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Started work on Debhelper v8. It is still experimental, and more
+ changes are planned for that mode.
+ * dh_installman: Support .so links relative to the current section.
+ * dh_installman: Avoid converting .so links to symlinks if the link
+ target is not present in the same binary package, on advice of
+ Colin Watson. (To support eventual so search paths.)
+ * Add deprecation warning for dh_clean -k.
+ * dh_testversion: Removed this deprecated and unused command.
+ * debian/compress files are now deprecated. Seems only one package
+ (genesis) still uses them.
+ * dh_fixperms: Tighten globs used to find library .so files,
+ avoiding incorrectly matching things like "foo.sources". Closes: #583328
+ * dh_installchangelogs: Support packages placing their changelog in a
+ file with a name like HISTORY. Closes: #582749
+ * dh_installchangelogs: Also look for changelog files in doc(s)
+ subdirectories. Closes: #521258
+ * In v8 mode, do not allow directly passing unknown options to debhelper
+ commands. (Unknown options in DH_OPTIONS still only result in warnings.)
+ * In v8 mode, dh_makeshlibs will run dpkg-gensymbols on all shared
+ libraries it generates shlibs files for. This means that -X can be
+ used to exclude libraries from processing by dpkg-gensymbols. It also
+ means that libraries in unusual locations, where dpkg-gensymbols does
+ not itself normally look, will be passed to it, a behavior change which
+ may break some packages. Closes: #557603
+ * In v8 mode, dh expects the sequence to run is always its first parameter.
+ (Ie, use "dh $@ --foo", not "dh --foo $@")
+ This avoids ambiguities when parsing options to be passed on to debhelper
+ commands. (See #570039)
+ * In v8 mode, prefer the perl_build buildsystem over perl_makemaker.
+ Closes: #578805
+ * postrm-init: Avoid calling the error handler if update-rc.d fails.
+ Closes: #586065

+debhelper (7.4.20) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Drop one more call to dpkg-architecture. Closes: #580837
+ (Raphael Geissert)
+ * Further reduce the number of calls to dpkg-architecture to zero,
+ in a typical package with no explicit architecture mentions
+ in control file or debhelper config files.
+ * dh_perl: use debian_abi for XS modules. Closes: #581233
