     switching to statoverrides..
   * Since dh_debstd requires dh_installmanpages (where do you think the
     latter's evil interface came from?), I have removed it. It was a nice
     thought-toy, but nobody really used it, right?
   * Since the from-debstd document walks the maintainer through running

     instead.
   * dh_installman installs only into /usr/share/man, not the X11R6
     directory. Policy says "files must not be installed into
     `/usr/X11R6/bin/', `/usr/X11R6/lib/', or `/usr/X11R6/man/' unless this
     is necessary for the package to operate properly", and I really doubt

   * dh_installinit: installs debian/package.default files as /etc/default/
     files.
   * Updated to current perl coding standards (use strict, lower-case
     variable names, pod man pages).
   * Since with the fixing of the man page installer issue, my checklist for
     debhelper v3 is complete, I pronounce debhelper v3 done! Revved the

     planned). Note that I have no plans for a v4 at this time. :-)
   * Testing: I have used this new version of debhelper to build a large
     number of my own packages, and it seems to work. But this release
     touches every file in this package, so be careful out there..
