Dear bash maintainer,

could you please update the bash packaging to debhelper compat 13 and make `debian/rules` use the standard dh sequence?

You can find a set of patches at

https://salsa.debian.org/gioele/bash/-/compare/shell-sh...rules-std-dh

The updated `debian/rules` file is much shorter and simpler to follow compared to the current hand-written set of rules.

`debian/rules` could be further improved and simplified. However this will lead to small changes in the resulting packages.

diffoscope says that the binary packages generated using the proposed set of patch are identical to the current binary packages (except for unavoidable build ID changes in `.gnu_debuglink`).

Please note that these patches build on the `nodoc`, `rrr-no` and `shell-sh` series related to <https://bugs.debian.org/1067150>, <https://bugs.debian.org/1067394> and <https://bugs.debian.org/1067400>.

Regards,
