+debhelper (3.4.4) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Introduced the debian/compat file. This is the new, preferred way to say
+ what debhelper compatability level your package uses. It has the big
+ advantage of being available to debhelper when you run it at the command
+ line, as well as in debian/rules.
+ * A new v4 feature: dh_installinit, in v4 mode, will use invoke-rc.d.
+ This is in v4 for testing, but I may well roll it back into v3 (and
+ earlier) once woody is released and I don't have to worry about breaking
+ things (and, presumably, once invoke-rc.d enters policy).
+ * Some debhelper commands will now build up a new substvars variable,
+ ${misc:Depends}, based on things they know your package needs to depend
+ on. For example, dh_installinit in v4 mode adds sysvinit (>= 2.80-1) to
+ that dep list, and dh_installxfonts adds a dep on xutils. This variable
+ should make it easier to keep track of what your package needs to depends
+ on, supplimenting the ${shlibs:Depends} and ${perl:Depends} substvars.
+ Hmm, this appears to be based loosely on an idea by Masato Taruishi
+ <taru@debian.org>, filtered through a long period of mulling it over.
+ Closes: #76352
+ * Use the addsubstvar function I wrote for the above in dh_perl too.

+
+ * Improved dh_installxfonts some more:
+ - Better indenting of generated code.
+ - Better ordering of generated code (minor fix).

+
+debhelper (3.4.2) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_installman: more documentation about the .TH line. Closes: #129205
+ * dh_installxfonts:
+ - Packages that use this should depend on xutils. See man page.
+ - However, if you really want to, you can skip the dep, and the
+ postinst will avoid running program that arn't available. Closes: #131053
+ - Use update-fonts-dir instead of handling encodings ourselves. Yay!
+ - Pass only the last component of the directory name to
+ update-fonts-*, since that's what they perfer now.
+ - Other changes, chould fully comply with Debian X font policy now.

+debhelper (3.4.0) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Began work on v4 support (and thus the large version number jump), and it
+ is only for the very brave right now since I will unhesitatingly break
+ compatability in v4 mode as I'm developing it. Currently, updating to v4
+ mode will only make dh_makeshlibs -V generate shared library deps that
+ omit the debian part of the version number. The reasoning behind this
+ change is that the debian revision should not typically break binary
+ compatability, that existing use of -V is causing too tight versioned
+ deps, and that if you do need to include the debian revision for some
+ reason, you can always write it out by hand. Closes: #101497
+ * dh_testversion is deprecated -- use build deps instead. A warning message
+ is now output when it runs. Currently used by: 381 packages.
+ * dh_installxaw is deprecated -- xaw-wrappers in no longer in the
+ distribution. A warning message is now output when it runs. Currently used
+ by: 3 packages (bugs filed).
+ * Added referneces to menufile in dh_installmenu man page. Closes: #127978
+ (dh_make is not a part of debhelper, if you want it changed, file a bug on
+ dh-make.)
