-v8:
-
-* better package arch filtering for -N , -p (#576990)
-* Support DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=debug ; maybe also support passing
- -g -O2 by default. See patch (and discussion of why this breaks
- compatability) in #544844.
-* Reorder build systems list. perl_build before perl_makemaker.
- Any other changes? #578805

+v10:
* escaping in config files (for whitespace)?
* dh_installinit --restart-after-upgrade as default?
Deprecated:
+* make a missing debian/compat an error. (started printing warning messages
+ in 20120115)
* DH_COMPAT 1, 2, 3, 4. Can be removed once all packages are seen to be using
- a newer version. I won't hold my breath. Now with evil warning messages
- though.
+ a newer version. I won't hold my breath. (2 and 3 are getting close though.)
* dh_suidregister. Once nothing in the archive uses it.
* dh_installmanpages.
* dh_movefiles. I won't hold my breath. Have not added deprecation
* delsubstvar() and the last parameter to addsubstvar that makes it remove
a string are not used in debhelper itself, but have been left in the
library in case other things use them. Deprecate and remove.
-* dh --before , --after , --until , --remaining (not formally deprecated yet)
+* dh --before , --after , --until , --remaining
* debian/compress files
+* deprecate dh_gconf for dh_installgsettings (stuff should be migrating
+ away from gconf, and then I can just remove it -- have not added warning
+ or depreaction docs yet)
Also, grep the entire archive for all dh_* command lines,
and check to see what other switches are not being used, and maybe remove
