* Simplify some debhelper overrides slightly.
* New upstream release:
- Add --fix to --script mode to automatically fix problems like the

The fix code gets run based on the response the exception handler gives.
The exception handler returns the default answer for all exceptions when
in script mode, and the default for that one is not to fix it. Thus, to
get it to say yes, fix it, you need the exception handler to recognize
