debhelper 10.10.4ubuntu1 source package in Ubuntu

Changelog

debhelper (10.10.4ubuntu1) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Merge from current Debian unstable.  Remaining changes:
    - Generate ddebs from debhelper instead of pkg-create-dbgsym
      + Make debhelper Conflict/Replace pkg-create-dbgsym to force it off.
      + Mirror udeb code in dh_builddeb to allow us to alter file extension.
      + Set dbgsym Package-Type to ddeb to get correct debian/files output.
    - dh_installchangelogs: Do not install upstream changelog in compat
      level 7 and higher to avoid pointlessly bloating installed packages.

debhelper (10.10.4) unstable; urgency=medium

  * meson.pm: Keep the meson cross file until dh_clean is
    called as otherwise ninja tries and fails to regenerate the
    build rules.  Thanks to Helmut Grohne for reporting the
    bug.  (Closes: #879658)
  * dh_dwz: Add new experimental tool to run dwz(1) to deduplicate
    ELF debugging symbols.  It should be generally be run before
    dh_strip (as dh_strip compresses the debug symbols and dwz
    expects uncompressed debug symbols).  (Closes: #878888)
  * dwz.pm: New sequence to add dh_dwz to the sequence.
  * d/control: Add a Suggets on dwz for the optional dh_dwz tool.
  * Dh_Lib.pm: Fix regression where the source section would not
    be parsed leading to dbgsym packages possibly getting an
    incorrect value in the Section field.  Thanks to Mihai
    Moldovan for reporting the issue.  (Closes: #879667)

debhelper (10.10.3) unstable; urgency=medium

  * dh_strip: Skip the entire directory when an exclude rule
    parameter matches it.
  * dh_fixperms: Improve the documentation to assume less familarity
    with "Rules-Requires-Root" (R³).
  * dh_usrlocal: Ditto.
  * dh_builddeb: Ditto.
  * dh_usrlocal: Correct the group name when creating directories
    owned by "root:staff".  Thanks to Paul Gevers for reporting
    the bug.  (Closes: #879643)
  * dh_usrlocal: Fix inverted boolean logic that made dh_usrlocal
    ignore ownership of directories when it should have preserved
    them.

debhelper (10.10.2) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Dh_Lib: Fix uninitialized warning in find_hardlinks that
    broke dh_compress's ability to deal with hardlinks.  Thanks
    to Ondřej Surý for finding the bug.

debhelper (10.10.1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * debhelper.pod: Document that all tools by default must be run
    in the root of an unpacked source.
  * dh: Clarify that --list can be run anywhere.
  * dh_testroot: Temporarily cope with being run outside a source
    root.  (Closes: #879478)
  * dh_testroot: Update manpage to mention its new scope.
  * d/control: Bump (build-)dependency on dpkg to 1.19.0.3~.  That
    was technically necessary already in the previous upload.

debhelper (10.10) unstable; urgency=medium

  * dh_installsystemd: Improve error messages to include the actual
    error caused by attempted to open the file.
  * dh_systemd_enable: Ditto.
  * dh_systemd_start: Ditto.
  * dh_installinit: In compat 12, error out if an upstart init file
    is provided with a reminder message about how to remove the
    obsolete conffile.  (Closes: #876453)
  * dh_systemd_enable: Permit missing explicitly requested file in
    package as long as another on being acted on ships it.
    (Closes: #878911)
  * dh_systemd_start: Ditto.
  * Dh_Lib.pm: Add support for R³ (Rules-Requires-Root field) to
    enable package builds without requiring root (or only
    selectively require root).
  * dh_fixperms: Skip "chown" calls when R³ is set to anything but
    "binary-targets".
  * dh_installchangelogs: Ditto.
  * dh_installdocs: Ditto.
  * dh_testroot: Update check for root to support R³.
  * makefile.pm: Call "make install" with DPKG_GAIN_ROOT_CMD when
    R³ contains the "debhelper/upstream-make-install" keyword.
  * dh_builddeb: Pass --root-owner-group to dpkg-deb in packages
    with R³ (except for "binary-targets").
  * dh_usrlocal: When R³ is enabled (and not "binary-targets"),
    ignore the ownership/mode information on the directories.
    Instead, the ownership "root:staff" and the mode 02775 is used.
  * d/control: Bump (Build-)Dependency on dpkg-dev to support to
    support R³.
  * d/control: Set R³ to "no".

debhelper (10.9.2) unstable; urgency=medium

  [ Niels Thykier ]
  * dh_install: Defer the removal of --list-missing and
    --fail-missing until compat 12.
  * dh: Run the new dh_installsystemd helper by default in compat 11.
  * systemd.pm: Remove the sequence in compat 11.  It has been replaced
    by the new dh_installsystemd helper.

  * qmake.pm: Remove unnecessary "-nocache" parameter.
    (Closes: #878427, LP: #1206234)

  [ Ville Skyttä ]
  * Fix a number of spelling mistakes.  (Closes: #878325)

  [ Felipe Sateler ]
  * dh_installsystemd: New command (currently noop except when used in
    the experimental compat 11).  This new helper:
    - Generates postinst code for tmpfiles (now that dh_installinit
      does not).
    - Follows the naming convention for other built-in dh_* commands.
    - Replaces dh_systemd_enable and dh_systemd_start in compat 11
      and later.
    - Only acts on units with the name specified by "--name" when this
      option is given.
    (Closes: #752521, #857306, #870768, #876486)
  * dh_systemd_enable: Remove as obsolete in compat 11.
  * dh_systemd_start: Ditto.

  [ Helmut Grohne ]

  * dh_builddeb: Add some missing error checks.

    DH_OPTIONS (among other).  Thanks to Adrian Bunk and
    Andrew Shadura for reporting the issue.  (Closes: #876689)
  * Dh_Getopt.pm: Gracefully reduce the tool to a no-op when given
    a -p<pkg> and <pkg> is disabled by a Build-Profile.

    Build-Profiles.  Thanks to Helmut Grohne for the report.

    --doc-main-package are listed in debian/control.
  * dh_installexamples: Ditto.

  * dh_installinit: Defer making --no-restart-on-upgrade an error
    until compat 12.
  * Dh_Lib: Defer making the "shell-spawning bug" in doit an error
    until compat 12.
  * dh_systemd_enable: Fix regression in debhelper/10.9 where
    template units would be installed as regular units (and
    possibly replace regular units).  (Closes: #877989)
  * dh_systemd_enable: Drop versioned dependency on
    init-system-helpers that is satisfied in oldstable.
  * Dh_Lib: Fix regression where --no-act would actually create
    maintscript snippets.
  * dh_systemd_*: If an unit file cannot be read (e.g. to check for
    the [Install] section), error out instead of emitting a warning
    and continuing.
  * t: Add tests for dh_systemd_* based on WIP tests from Felipe
    Sateler related to a new dh_installsystemd helper.
  * dh_systemd_enable: Properly quote unit names to preserve
    escaped names like "\x2d".  Thanks to Bernd Zeimetz for
    reporting the issue.  (Closes: #764730)
  * dh_systemd_start: Ditto.
  * meson.pm: Add prototype support for cross building by relying
    on /usr/share/meson/debcrossgen.  Note that this is currently

    instead of using filenames/extensions.  (Closes: #35733)
  * dh_shlibdeps: Ditto.
  * d/control: Bump Standards-Versions to 4.1.0:

  * dh_fixperms: Set the permissions of /usr/lib/nodejs/*/{cli,bin}.js
    to 0755.  Thanks to Pirate Praveen for the report.

  * Dh_Lib: Introduce a qx_cmd sub to behave like a mix of qx
    and doit (i.e. avoid the shell while capturing stdout).
  * dh_makeshlibs: Avoid forking a shell when calling objdump in
    compat 11.
  * dh_shlibdeps: Avoid forking a shell when calling file.
  * dh_shlibdeps: Avoid passing files with "newline" to
    subprocesses.
  * dh_installdocs: Ignore missing files in compat 11 for packages

  * debhelper.pod: Tweak text for some compat 11 changes.

  * dh_strip: Disable parallelism when --dbg-package is used as it
    causes non-deterministic failures in some cases.  Thanks to
    Helmut Grohne for reporting the issue.  (Closes: #872007)
  * dh_installdocs: Auto-detect "main package" for documentation
    packages in compat 11 to assist with Debian policy §12.3.  This
    auto-detection can be overruled with the new --doc-main-package.
