 .
   [ Niels Thykier ]
   * 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
     that are not processed (e.g. arch:all packages during a -B build).
     Thanks to Jens Reyer for reporting the issue.  (Closes: #870892)
   * dh_installexamples: Ditto.
   * dh_installinfo: Ditto.
   * dh_installman: Ditto.
   * dh_compress: Avoid forking a shell for a find command.
   * dh_gconf: Ditto.
   * dh_installgsettings: Ditto.
   * dh_perl: Avoid forking a shell for a dpkg call.
   * dh_gencontrol: Set the priority of all dbgsym packages to
     optional to be compliant with Standards-Version 4.0.1.
     Thanks to Mattia Rizzolo for the report.  (Closes: #870905)
   * dh_installdocs: Accept "nodoc" via DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS as well.
     Thanks to Sébastien Villemot for the suggestion.
     (Closes: #866619)
   * dh_installexamples: Ditto.
   * dh_installinfo: Ditto.
   * dh_installman: Ditto.
   * dh_installwm: Ditto.
   * debhelper.pod: Tweak text for some compat 11 changes.
   * dh_installdeb: Stop emitting versioned Pre-Depends on dpkg for
     symlink_to_dir and dir_to_symlink maintscripts.  The version
     requirements are satisfied in oldoldstable.
   * dh_installdocs: Merge two chmod calls to save a fork+exec.
   * 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.
     (Closes: #824221)
   * dh_installexamples: Ditto.
   * dh_update_autotools_config: Improve detection to also catch very
     old versions of config.{guess,sub} that do not have the
     "timestamp" variable.  Thanks to Guillem Jover for reporting the
     bug.  (Closes: #872510)
 .
   [ Adam Conrad ]
   * dh_gencontrol: Change the synopsis of dbgsym packages so it
     follows best practises.  (Closes: #872274)
 .
   [ Geoffrey Thomas ]
   * Support building debhelper on case-insensitive filesystems by
     moving the Debian (perl package) to the lib subdirectory.
     (Closes: #873043)
