+debhelper (4.0.0) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * dh_movefiles has long been a sore point in debhelper. Inherited
+ from debstd, its interface and implementation suck, and I have maintained
+ it while never really deigning to use it. Now there is a remplacment:
+ dh_install, which ...
+ - copies files, doesn't move them. Closes: #75360, #82649
+ - doesn't have that whole annoying debian/package.files vs. debian/files
+ mess, as it uses debian/install.
+ - supports copying empty subdirs. Closes: #133037
+ - doesn't use tar, thus no error reproting problems. Closes: #112538
+ - files are listed relative to the pwd, debian/tmp need not be used at
+ all, so no globbing issues. Closes: #100404
+ - supports -X. Closes: #116902
+ - the whole concept of moving files out of a directory is gone, so this
+ bug doesn't really apply. Closes: #120026
+ - This is exactly what Bill Allombert asked for in #117383, even though I
+ designed it seemingly independantly. Thank you Bill! Closes: #117383
+ * Made debhelper's debian/rules a lot simpler by means of the above.
+ * Updated example rules file to use dh_install. Also some reordering and
+ other minor changes.
+ * dh_movefiles is lightly deprecated, and when you run into its bugs and
+ bad design, you are incouraged to just use dh_install instead.
+ * dh_fixperms: in v4 only, make all files in bin/ dirs +x. Closes: #119039
+ * dh_fixperms: in v4 only, make all files in etc/init.d executable (of
+ course there's -X ..)
+ * dh_link: in v4 only, finds existing, non-policy-conformant symlinks
+ and corrects them. This has the side effect of making dh_link idempotent.
+ * Added a -h/--help option. This seems very obvious, but it never occured to
+ me before..
+ * use v4 for building debhelper itself
+ * v4 mode is done, you may now use it without fear of it changing.
+ (This idea of this upload is to get v4 into woody so people won't run into
+ many issues backporting from sarge to woody later on. Packages targeted
+ for woody should continue to use whatever compatability level they are
+ using.)

+debhelper (3.4.8) unstable; urgency=low
+
+ * Thanks to Benjamin Drieu <benj@debian.org>, dh_installdocs -X now works.
+ I had to modify his patch to use cp --parents, since -P spews warnings
+ now. Also, I made it continue to use cp -a if nothing is excluded,
+ which is both faster, and means this patch is less likely to break
+ anything if it turns out to be buggy. Also, stylistic changes.
+ Closes: #40649
+ * Implemented -X for dh_installexamples as well.
+ * dh_clean -X substvars will also work now. Closes: #66890

+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.

+ - 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.
