Changelog
debhelper (8.9.8ubuntu1) precise; urgency=low
* Merge with Debian; remaining Ubuntu changes:
- dh_installinit: Add --upstart-only and --onlyscripts-upstart modes.
- Add various autoscripts for above: postinst-upstart,
postinst-upstart-replace, postinst-upstart-restart,
prerm-upstart, prerm-upstart-norestart, preinst-removeconffile.
- dh_installudev: Change default init.d symlink priority to 40.
- dh_installchangelogs: Do not install upstream changelog in compat level
7. This floods packages with huge upstream changelogs which take
precious CD space.
- add dh_apparmor and autoscripts
- debian/rules: set executable bit for dh_apparmor before actually running
dh build, that is in order to get the manpage built for dh_apparmor.
- dh_installinit: drop redundant definition of -O.
debhelper (8.9.8) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_fixperms: Operate on .ali files throughout /usr/lib, including
multiarch dirs. Closes: #641279
* dh: Avoid compat deprecation warning before option parsing.
Closes: #641361
* Clarify description of dh_auto_* -- params. Closes: #642786
* Mention in debhelper(7) that buildsystem options are typically passed
to dh. Closes: #643069
* perl_makemaker: In v9, pass CFLAGS to Makefile.PL using OPTIMIZE.
Closes: #643702 Thanks, Steve Langasek.
debhelper (8.9.7) unstable; urgency=low
* dh: Now you can use override_dh_command-arch and override_dh_command-indep
to run different overrides when building arch and indep packages. This
allows for a much simplified form of rules file in this situation, where
build-arch/indep and binary-arch/indep targets do not need to be manually
specified. See man page for examples. Closes: #640965
.
Note that if a rules file has say, override_dh_fixperms-arch,
but no corresponding override_dh_fixperms-indep, then the unoverridden
dh_fixperms will be run on the indep packages.
.
Note that the old override_dh_command takes precidence over the new
overrides, because mixing the two types of overrides would have been
too complicated. In particular, it's difficult to ensure an
old override target will work if it's sometimes constrained to only
acting on half the packages it would normally run on. This would be
a source of subtle bugs, so is avoided.
* dh: Don't bother running dh_shlibdebs, dh_makeshlibs, or dh_strip
in the binary target when all packages being acted on are indep.
* dh: Avoid running install sequence a third time in v9 when the
rules file has explicit binary-indep and binary-arch targets.
Closes: #639341 Thanks, Yann Dirson for test case.
* debhelper no longer build-depends on man-db or file, to ease bootstrapping.
* Remove obsolete versioned dependency on perl-base.
* Avoid writing debhelper log files in no-act mode. Closes: #640586
* Tighten parsing of DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
debhelper (8.9.6) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_installlogcheck: Add support for --name. Closes: #639020
Thanks, Gergely Nagy
debhelper (8.9.5) unstable; urgency=low
* dh_compress: Don't compress _sources documentation subdirectory
as used by python-sphinx. Closes: #637492
Thanks, Jakub Wilk
* dh_ucf: fix test for ucf/ucfr availability and quote filenames.
Closes: #638944
Thanks, Jeroen Schot
debhelper (8.9.4) unstable; urgency=low
* dh: The --before --after --until and --remaining options are deprecated.
Use override targets instead.
* Assume that the package can be cleaned (i.e. the build directory can be
removed) as long as it is built out-of-source tree and can be configured.
This is useful for derivative buildsystems which generate Makefiles.
(Modestas Vainius) Closes: #601590
* dh_auto_test: Run cmake tests in parallel when allowed by
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. (Modestas Vainius) Closes: #587885
* dpkg-buildflags is only used to set environment in v9, to avoid
re-breaking packages that were already broken a first time by
dpkg-buildpackage unconditionally setting the environment, and
worked around that by unsetting variables in the rules file.
(Example: numpy)
debhelper (8.9.3) unstable; urgency=low
* dh: Remove obsolete optimisation hack that caused sequence breakage
in v9 with a rules file with an explict build target. Closes: #634784
debhelper (8.9.2) unstable; urgency=low
* dh: Support make 3.82. Closes: #634385
debhelper (8.9.1) unstable; urgency=low
* Typo fixes. Closes: #632662
* dh: In v9, do not enable any python support commands. Closes: #634106
* Now the QT4 version of qmake can be explicitly selected by passing
--buildsystem=qmake_qt4. Closes: #566840
* Remove debhelper.log in compat level 1. Closes: #634155
* dh_builddeb: Build in parallel when allowed by DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS.
Closes: #589427 (Thanks, Gergely Nagy and Kari Pahula)
