+ * autoscripts/*menu*: It turns out that "command" is like test -w, it will

+ postinsts that use command fail. Reverted to using test -x. Packages
+ built with debhelper >= 1.2.21 that use menus should be rebuilt.

+
+ * dh_fixperms: linux 2.1.x and 2.2.x differ from earlier versions in that
+ they do not clear the suid bit on a file when the owner of that file
+ changes. It seems that fakeroot behaves the same as linux 2.1 here. I
+ was relying on the old behavior to get rid of suid and sgid bits on files.
+ Since this no longer happens implicitly, I've changed to clearing the
+ bits explicitly.
+ * There's also a small behavior change involved here. Before, dh_fixperms
+ did not clear suid permissions on files that were already owned by root.
+ Now it does.
+ * dh_fixperms.1: cleaned up the docs to mention that those bits are
+ cleared.

+
+ * dh_installdocs: Added doc-base support, if debian/<package>.doc-base
+ exists, it will be installed as a doc-base control file. If you use this,
+ you probably want to add "dh_testversion 1.2.21" to the rules file to make
+ sure your package is built with a new enough debhelper.
+ * dh_installdocs: now supports -n to make it not modify postinst/prerm.
+ * dh_suidregister: turned off leading 0/1 in permissions settings, until
+ suidregister actually supports it.
+ * autoscripts/*: instead of "text -x", use "command -v" to see if various
+ binaries exist. This gets rid of lots of hard-coded paths.

+debhelper (1.2.19) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_listpackages: new command. Takes the standard options taken by other
+ debhelper commands, and just outputs a list of the binary packages a
+ debhelper command would act on. Added because of bug #30626, and because
+ of wn's truely ugly use of debhelper internals to get the same info (and
+ because it's just 4 lines of code ;-).
+ * dh_compress: is now smart about compressing files that are hardlinks.
+ When possible, will only compress one file, delete the hardlinks, and
+ re-make hardlinks to the compressed file, saving some disk space.

+ * dh_movefiles: added --sourcedir option to make it move files out of

+ * manpages: updated policy version numbers.
+ * dh_installdocs: behavior change: all docs are now installed mode 644.
+ I have looked and it doesn't seem this will actually affect any packages
+ in debian. This is useful only if you want to use dh_installdocs and not
+ dh_fixperms, and that's the only time this behavior change will have any
+ effect, either. (#30118)
