+ * dh_installmanpages: the new perl version had a nasty habit of
+ installing .so.x library files as man pages. Fixed.
+ * dh_installmanpages: the code to exclude searching for man pages in

+
+ * Debhelper now has a web page at http://kitenet.net/programs/debhelper/
+
+ * Added code to debian/rules to update the web page when I release new
+ debhelpers.
+ * dh_compress: since version 0.88 or so, dh_compress has bombed out if
+ a debian/compress file returned an error code. This was actually
+ unintentional - in fact, the debian/compress example in the man page
+ will fail this way if usr/info or usr/X11R6 is not present. Corrected
+ the program to not fail. (#26214)

+debhelper (1.1.12) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_installdocs: forgot to pass package name to isnative(). Any native

+ packages. Fixed.

+
+ * It's come to my attention that a few packages use filename globbing in
+ debian/{docs,examples,whatever} files and expect that to work. It used
+ to work before the perl conversion, but it was never _documented_, or
+ intented to work. If you use this in your packages, they are broken and
+ need fixing (and will refuse to build with current versions of debhelper).
+ I apologize for the inconvenience.
+
+ * dh_clean: fixed a bug, intorduced in version 1.1.8, where it didn't
+ remove debian/files properly.
+ * dh_shlibdeps, dh_testdir, dh_testroot, dh_testversion: converted to perl.
+ * Encode the version of debhelper in a sepererate file, so dh_testversion
+ doesn't have to be generated when a new version of debhelper is built.
+ * Removed bogus menu file.

+ * Dh_Lib.pm: made U_PARAMS an array of parameters.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: fixed bug in the escaping code, numbers don't need to be
+ escaped. Also, no longer escape "-".
+ * dh_clean, dh_gencontrol, dh_installcron: converted to perl.
+ * dh_gencontrol.1, dh_gencontrol: the man page had said that
+ --update-rcd-params was equivilant to -u for this program. You should
+ really use --dpkg-gencontrol-params.

+ <branden@purdue.edu> for looking that up.

+debhelper (1.1.5) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_builddeb, dh_installchangelogs: converted to perl.
+ * dh_installdirs: converted to perl, getting rid of nasty chdir en-route.
+ * dh_installdirs: now you can use absolute directory names too if you
+ prefer.
+ * doc/PROGRAMMING: updated to cover new perl modules.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: doit(): when printing out commands that have run, escape
+ metacharacters in the output. I probably don't escape out all the
+ characters I should, but this is just a convenience to the user anyway.
+ * dh_installdebfiles: it's been broken forever, I fixed it. Obviously
+ nobody uses it anymore, which is good, since it's deprected :-)

+debhelper (1.1.4) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_movefiles: fixed bug introduced in 1.1.1 where it would fail in some
+ cases if you tried to move a broken symlink.
+ * dh_installdocs: was only operating on the first package.
+ * dh_installexamples: rewritten in perl.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: all multiple package operations were broken.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: implemented complex_doit() and autoscript().
+ * Made all perl code work with use strict and -w (well, except
+ dh_getopt.pl, but that's a hack that'll go away one day).
+ * I didn't realize, but rewriting dh_installdocs in perl fixed bug #24686
+ (blank lines in debian/docs file problem), although this same problem
+ applies to other debhelper programs... like dh_installexamples, which had
+ the same bug fixed when I rewrote it in perl just now.
+ * Dh_Lib.pm: accidentially didn't check DH_VERBOSE if commands were not
+ passed any switches.
+ * Dh_Getopt.pm: --noscripts was broken.

+ * dh_md5sums: -x was broken since version 1.1.1 - fixed.
+ * dh_lib: removed get_arch_indep_packages() function that hasn't been used
+ at all for a long while.
+ * Added Dh_Lib.pm, a translation of dh_lib into perl.
+ * dh_getopt.pl: moved most of it into new Dh_Getopt.pm module, rewriting
+ large chunks in the process.
+ * dh_installdocs: completly rewritten in perl. Now it's faster and it can
+ install many oddly named files it died on before.
+ * dh_installdocs: fixed a bug that installed TODO files mode 655 in native
+ debian packages.

+
+ * dh_movefiles: try to move all files specified, and only then bomb out if
+ some of the file could not be found. Makes it easier for some packages
+ that don't always have the same files in them.
+ * dh_compress: any parameters passed to it on the command line specify
+ additional files to be compressed in the first package acted on.
+ * dh_compress: recognize standard -A parameter.

+ * New unstable branch of debhelper.

+ * TODO: list all current bugs, in order I plan to tackle them.
+ * Added debhelper.1 man page, which groups all the debhelper options that
+ are common to all commands in once place so I can add new options w/o
+ updating 27 man pages.
+ * dh_*.1: updated all debheper man pages to refer to debhelper(1) where
+ appropriate. Also corrected a host of little errors.
+ * doc/README: moved a lot of this file into debhelper.1.
+ * dh_*: -N option now excludes a package from the list of packages the

+ people using debian 2.0 (the current version in debian 2.0 has no
+ critical bugs, but this version is of course a lot nicer), and I plan
+ to start work on a new branch of debhelper that will fix many wishlist
+ bug reports, and of course introduce many new bugs, and which will go
+ into unstable only.
