+ * dh_fixperms: make shared libraries non-executable, in accordance with

+ * dh_makeshlibs: introduced a -V flag, which allows you to specify explicit
+ version requirements in the shlibs file.
+ * dh_{installdirs,installdocs,installexamples,suidregister,undocumented}:
+ Added a -A flag, which makes any files/directories specified on the
+ command line apply to ALL packages acted on.
+ * Updated Standards-Version to latest.

+debhelper (0.50) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_makeshlibs: added -m parameter, which can force the major number
+ of the shared library if it is guessed incorrectly.
+ * Added dh_testversion to let your package depend on a certian version of
+ debhelper to build.
+ * dh_{installdirs,installdocs,installexamples,suidregieter,undocumented}:
+ behavior modification - any files/directories specified on the command
+ line now apply to the first package acted on. This may not be the
+ first package listed in debian/control, if you use -p to make it act on
+ a given package, or -i or -a.
+ * If you take advantage of the above new behavior, I suggest you add
+ "dh_testversion 0.50" to your debian/rules.
+ * Display a warning message in cases where the above behavior is triggered,
+ and debhelper's behavior has altered.
+ * I have grepped debian's source packages, and I'm quite sure this
+ is not going to affect any packages currently in debian.
+ * dh_lib: isnative() now caches its return value, which should optimize
+ away several more calls to dpkg-parsechangelog.
+ * README: explain a way to embed debhelper generated shell script into a
+ perl script.
+ * dh_installinit: A hack to work around the problem in getopt(1) that
+ led to bug report #16229: Any text specified on the command line that is
+ not a flag will be presumed to be part of the -u flag. Yuck.

+ * dh_lib: don't expand text passed to doit() a second time. This fixes

+ that doit() can no longer handle complex commands now. (ie, pipes, `;',
+ `&', etc separating multiple commands, or redirection)
+ * dh_makeshlibs, dh_md5sums, dh_installdebfiles, dh_du, dh_clean,
+ dh_installdirs: don't pass complex commands to doit().
