[ Niels Thykier ] * dh_installinitramfs: Remove misleading "in compat 12" as the behaviour was unrelated to the compat level. * dh_installinitramfs: Migrate to using declaratively triggering update-initramfs as a noawait trigger (replacing maintscript calls to "update-initramfs -u", which had the same affect). (Closes: #822730). * dh_installman: Improve error messages and handling of broken section numbers. Notably ignore (with a warning) sections from manpages that look suspiciously like a version number. Thanks to Paul Gevers for reporting the bug. (Closes: #958343) * Dh_Lib.pm: Support that Architecture (among other fields) can be folded in d/control. Thanks to Thorsten Glaser for reporting the issue. (Closes: #958987) * SequencerUtil.pm: Fix use of uninitialized variable warning. * Dh_Lib.pm: Properly error out on paragraphs missing the Package field (rather than silently ignoring them). * debian/rules: Fix call to gen-provides that seemed to work more due to luck than by design. * Dh_Lib.pm: Provide HIGHEST_STABLE_COMPAT_LEVEL, which reflects the latest stable compat level. Thanks to Jelmer Vernooij for the suggestion. * Dh_Lib.pm: Respond to DH_DATAFILES environment variable in addition to DH_AUTOSCRIPTS as a means to find data files. This is mostly useful for testing purposes or to be "self-hosting". The new DH_DATAFILES is more general than DH_AUTOSCRIPTS and enable us to add new data file sources without inventing new environment variables. * Dh_Lib.pm: Require perl v5.24 (available in Debian oldstable) to enable more modern features. * Dh_Lib.pm: Fix a bug in variable substition where ${Tab} incorrectly expanded to "\b" rather than "\t". * dh_installchangelogs.1: Loosely document which file names that dh_installchangelogs uses as guesses for finding an upstream changelog file. Thanks to Laurent Bigonville for suggesting the change. (Closes: #933224) * Dh_Lib.pm: When setting HOME or XDG_RUNTIME_DIR in compat 13, use an absolute path. Thanks to Dmitry Shachnev for reporting the issue. (Closes: #959731) * dh_installsystemd.1: Copy the description for the --no-stop-on-upgrade option from dh_installinit. * dh_installsystemd: Have --no-start or --no-stop-on-upgrade disable --restart-after-upgrade as the documentation says it will. Thanks to Axel Beckert for reporting the issue. (Closes: #959678) * dh_installinit: Ditto. * dh.1: Explicitly document that hook targets can cause complications when they are made unconditional by a makefile target and suggest alternatives. Thanks to Marcin Owsiany for reporting this. (Closes: #645873) * cmake.pm: Rollback -DCMAKE_AUTOGEN_VERBOSE=ON temporarily as it trips bhlc due to a bug in cmake. Thanks to Nicolas Braud-Santoni and "anoteng" for reporting the issue. (Closes: #959494) * dh_clean.1: Rephrase the description of dh_clean to avoid confusion about when it is run. Thanks to Hugh McMaster for the suggestion. (Closes: #960110) * dh_missing.1: Update documentation to reflect that the --fail-missing option is now the default in compat 13. Thanks to Hugh McMaster and Christoph Berg for the report. (Closes: #960107, #960697) * dh: Filter out the root-sequence in "--list" output and reject attempts to activate or deactivate the sequence as it is an implementation detail. * dh_installalternatives: New helper that can setup alternatives (update-alternatives) based on a declarative format. Currently, the format is converted to calls to update-alternatives, which are inserted into the maintscripts of the package. Thanks to David Engel and Fumitoshi UKAI for the original requests. (Closes: #43720) * dh_missing: Attempt to guess if missing files might be caused by the packager installing the same file via a different path and let them know of this. (Closes: #960781) . [ Guillem Jover ] * autoconf.pm: Pass --disable-option-checking to ./configure scripts to avoid warnings about unknown options. (Closes: #942813) . [ Translations ] * Fix typo in German translation.
