+debhelper (8.9.7) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh: Now you can use override_dh_command-arch and override_dh_command-indep
+ to run different overrides when building arch and indep packages. This
+ allows for a much simplified form of rules file in this situation, where
+ build-arch/indep and binary-arch/indep targets do not need to be manually
+ specified. See man page for examples. Closes: #640965
+ .
+ Note that if a rules file has say, override_dh_fixperms-arch,
+ but no corresponding override_dh_fixperms-indep, then the unoverridden
+ dh_fixperms will be run on the indep packages.
+ .
+ Note that the old override_dh_command takes precidence over the new
+ overrides, because mixing the two types of overrides would have been
+ too complicated. In particular, it's difficult to ensure an
+ old override target will work if it's sometimes constrained to only
+ acting on half the packages it would normally run on. This would be
+ a source of subtle bugs, so is avoided.
+ * dh: Don't bother running dh_shlibdebs, dh_makeshlibs, or dh_strip
+ in the binary target when all packages being acted on are indep.
+ * dh: Avoid running install sequence a third time in v9 when the
+ rules file has explicit binary-indep and binary-arch targets.
+ Closes: #639341 Thanks, Yann Dirson for test case.
+ * debhelper no longer build-depends on man-db or file, to ease bootstrapping.
+ * Remove obsolete versioned dependency on perl-base.
+ * Avoid writing debhelper log files in no-act mode. Closes: #640586
+ * Tighten parsing of DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.

+ * dh: The --before --after --until and --remaining options are deprecated.
+ Use override targets instead.
+ * Assume that the package can be cleaned (i.e. the build directory can be
+ removed) as long as it is built out-of-source tree and can be configured.
+ This is useful for derivative buildsystems which generate Makefiles.
+ (Modestas Vainius) Closes: #601590
+ * dh_auto_test: Run cmake tests in parallel when allowed by
+ DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. (Modestas Vainius) Closes: #587885
+ * dpkg-buildflags is only used to set environment in v9, to avoid
+ re-breaking packages that were already broken a first time by
+ dpkg-buildpackage unconditionally setting the environment, and
+ worked around that by unsetting variables in the rules file.
+ (Example: numpy)
