Debian changelogs should be UTF-8 encoded. Changed the wording from a
should to a may; since a should would make an unknown number of
packages insta buggy. A reuest makes all these wishlist bugs; we can
raise the severity in a later version of policy.
Added LANG=C before the debiandoc2X invocations, this ensures that the
resulting documents do not get converted to the locale on the building

* Add the modifications about base system, as opposed to the soon to be
obsolete base section (I assume it is) closes: Bug#53582
* Rearranged the virtual packages list. closes: Bug#72980
* This is basically an attempt to ratify the current practice of using
debhelper in the clean target. Currently, policy does not require
debhelper to be installed when the clean target is run, even though it
is in the build-depends field. This was a simple oversight.
closes: Bug#164035
* No longer depend on fileutils. closes: Bug#167425

* Applied text patch from Joey Hess to the debconf spec simply make it
conform to the reality of how some things work now. This is part of an
effort to make debconf and cdebconf better substitutes for each
other. Since it was not an XML patch, no special markup is present in
the new content, except where I made guesses. closes: Bug#160776
