Package: developers-reference Version: 3.3.8 Severity: wishlist -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
I recommend adding something like the following to section A.3.1 of the developer's reference: When choosing a debhelper compatibility level for your package, you should choose the highest compatibility level that is supported in the most recent stable release. Only use a higher compatibility level if you need specific features that are provided by that compatibility level that are not available in earlier levels. This is based on a mailing list discussion arising out of my suggestion that someone for whom I was sponsoring package uploads change the debhelper compatibility level to the newest (6). http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/02/msg00184.html - -- System Information: Debian Release: 4.0 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.18-6-k7 Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) developers-reference depends on no packages.
