+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.)

+ * dh_gencontrol: Added a documented interface for specifying substvars
+ data in a file. Substvars data may be put in debian/package.substvars.
+ (Those files used to be used by debhelper for automatically generated
+ data, but it uses a different internal filename now). It will be merged
+ with any automatically determined substvars data. See bug #98819
+ * I want to stress that no one should ever rely in internal, undocumented
+ debhelper workings. Just because debhelper uses a certian name for some
+ internally used file does not mean that you should feel free to modify
+ that file to your own ends in a debian package. If you do use it, don't
+ be at all suprised when it breaks. If you find that debhelper is lacking
+ a documented interface for something that you need, ask for it!
+ (debhelper's undocumented, internal use only files should now all be
+ prefixed with ".debhelper")

+ * Fixed issues with extended parameters to dh_gencontrol including spaces
+ and quotes. This was some histirical cruft that deals with splitting up
+ the string specified by -u, and it should not have applied to the set
+ of options after --. Now that it's fixed, any and all programs that
+ support a -- and options after it, do not require any special quoting
+ of the succeeding options. Quote just like you would in whatever
+ program those options go to. So, for example,
+ dh_gencontrol -Vblah:Depends='foo, bar (>= 1.2)' will work just as you
+ would hope. This fix does NOT apply to -u; don't use -u if you must do
+ something complex. Closes: #89311
