Closes: #84910 It is still deprecated, and it will still whine at you
if you use it. I appreciate the job everyone has been doing at
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
dh_debstd to get a list of debhelper commands, and since that document
has really outlives its usefullness, I removed it too. Use dh-make
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
a man page being in /usr/share/man is going to break many programs.
Closes: #81853 (I hope the bug submitter doesn't care that
dh_installmanpages still puts stuff in the X11R6/man directory.)
* dh_undocumented now the same too now.
* 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
version number appropriatly (a large jump; v3 changes less than I had
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..

debian/tmp, but it's a faq. Added some explanation. By the way, since
there now exists a documented way to use dh_movefiles that does not
have problems with empty directories that get left behind and so on, I
think this Closes: #17111, #51985

* dh_installchangelogs, dh_installdocs: allow dangling symlinks for

I also added some documentation to debhelper.1 about this, and removed
