+
+ * dh: debian/rules override targets can change what is run
+ for a specific debhelper command in a sequence.
+ (Thanks Modestas Vainius for the improved makefile parser.)
+ * dh: Redid all the examples to use override targets, since these
+ eliminate all annoying boilerplate and are much easier to understand
+ than the old method.
+ * Remove rules.simple example, there's no need to use explcit targets
+ with dh anymore.
* dh: Fix typo. Closes: #509754
* debhelper.pod: Fix typo. Closes: #510180
* dh_gconf: Support mandatory settings. Closes: #513923
+ * dh: Support debian/rules calling make with -B,
+ which is useful to avoid issues with phony implicit
+ rules (see bug #509756).
+ * Improve error messages when child commands fail.
+ * Depend on dpkg-dev 1.14.19, the first to support Package-Type
+ fields in dpkg-gencontrol.
+ * dh_gencontrol: No longer need to generate the udeb filename
+ when calling dpkg-gencontrol.
+ * dh_gencontrol: Do not need to tell dpkg-gencontol not to
+ include the Homepage field in udebs (fixed in dpkg-dev 1.14.17).
