[ Niels Thykier ]
* dh_usrlocal: Fix call to doit to avoid making it fork a shell.
* autoconf.pm: Ditto.
* cmake.pm: Ditto.
* meson.pm: Ditto.
* dh_installmodules: Ensure maintscripts are reproducible even with
multiple kernel versions detected.
* Apply patches from gregor herrmann to improve autopkgtests.
* Dh_Lib: Introduce a print_and_complex_doit.
* Buildsystem: Introduce a complex_doit_in_builddir, which is needed
by gradle-debian-helper.
* Dh_Lib: Fix bug in doit + doit_* that made them fork a shell in
some cases. For backwards compatibility, there is detection code
that should make it warn for this case and retain bug-compatibility.
This can cause a weird "Please specify the compatibility level in
debian/compat" error if the tools have chdir to a different directory.
* Dh_Lib: Support an optional hashref in doit + doit_* to enable some
trivial operations in the child process (e.g. redirect stdout).
* dh_installman: Avoid forking a shell where a simple subprocess call
is sufficient.
* Dh_Lib: Avoid forking 2 to 7 subprocesses for adding an autosnippet
when helper tools use a subroutine rather then a sed snippet.
* Dh_Lib: Extend autoscript to accept a hashref and use that for
substituting into the snippet. This variant (like the subroutine
variant) avoids forking a lot of subprocesses and need not worry
about a shell possibly interpreting metacharacters.
* dh_installman: Pass "-l" to man when recoding the manpages.
* dh_icons: Use hashref based autoscripts generation.
* dh_installcatalogs: Ditto.
* dh_installemacsen: Ditto.
* dh_installmenu: Ditto.
* dh_installmodules: Ditto.
* dh_installwm: Ditto.
* dh_installxfonts: Ditto.
* dh_systemd_enable: Ditto.
* dh_systemd_start: Ditto.
* Dh_Lib: Reduce the use of shell and external commands for
generating the final maintscripts.
* Dh_Lib: Make getpackages without any arguments return all
packages as the documentation promises it should. Previously,
it would hide packages not built (e.g. due to Build-Profiles).
* Dh_Lib: Provide a better error message when getpackages() is called
by a helper in the wrong directory. Unfortunately, dh cannot rely
on dh_testdir to do this as dh_testdir is called too late.
* dh: optimize out the call to dh_testdir. It is useless for
printing a helpful error message when called by dh.
* dh_installdocs: Apply patch from Sven Joachim to revert an
incorrect regression "fix". Thanks to Adrian Bunk for
reporting the issue. (Closes: #868649)
* dh_installexamples: Ditto.
* dh_installinfo: Ditto.
* dh_installman: Ditto.
* dh_gencontrol: Rewrite code that ensures that misc:Depends and
misc:Pre-Depends are present to avoid relying external processes
for this.
* dh_builddeb: Let dpkg-deb choose the default compression level for
dbgsym packages instead of using xz -1e. The current default (xz -6)
is likely to be a better default value for dbgsym packages. Thanks to
Adrian Bunk for the suggestion. (Closes: #868674)
* cmake.pm: Pass -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RUNSTATEDIR=/run to cmake in compat 11.
Thanks to Felix Geyer for the suggestion. (Closes: #869697)
* cmake.pm: Avoid using the user specific cmake package registry. Thanks
to Christian Seiler and Felix Geyer. (Closes: #868584)
.
[ Colin Watson ]
* Quote assignment to $recommended_compat in case it isn't a valid Perl
version string (e.g. for Debian derivatives). Fix typos that caused it
not to be used correctly. Use the /g flag so that all instances of the
substitution variable are handled. (Closes: #869780)
.
[ Isaac Jurado ]
* Make the autoconf buildsystem expand "${var}" values send to configure
(e.g. pass --mandir=/usr/share/man instead of --mandir=${prefix}/share/man).
(Closes: #813266)
