Package: debhelper
Version: 14.2
Severity: normal

In src:rsyslog I have the following fields for rsyslog-doc

Built-Using: ${sphinxdoc:Built-Using}
Depends: ${misc:Depends},
         ${sphinxdoc:Depends}

Reading through the debhelper-compat-upgrade-checklist I assumed I could
drop all those three lines.

Inspecting the resulting deb, it appeared this worked for
${misc:Depends} and ${spinxdoc:Depends} but not for
${sphinxdoc:Built-Using}.
The rsyslog-doc was missing the "Built-Using: sphinx (= 9.1.0-4)" field.


I'm uncertain if maybe I'm not reading the upgrade checklist correctly,
this is a bug in debhelper or a bug in sphinxdoc.

For now I re-added the line
Built-Using: ${sphinxdoc:Built-Using}

Michael

P.S.: I like this new feature of debhelper, it get's rid of a lot of
boilerplate. Thank you!
