--- Begin Message ---Package: gtkperf Version: 0.40+ds-2 Severity: important Tags: sid bullseye Hi, This package relies on the deprecated manual sequence control operations for dh, which predates the use of override targets. The options are: --until --after --before --remaining I would like to remove these options for dh in bullseye: * The options are difficult to use correctly as you have to know internal details of the dh sequencer to get the order right. * Their existence prevent refactoring inside dh that will enable better ways of handling the sequence. Among other because dh can no longer see the fully sequence it will has been/will be running as this is split over several calls to dh. This in turn makes it exceedingly difficult to design and implement features such as #836699. * While the options have been flagged as removed in compat 10, compat 9 and older are expected to live for another 4+ Debian releases (i.e. at least a decade). This is a long wait for supporting 8 source packages that rely on this feature. Accordingly, I ask that you please remove the use of these deprecated features and replace them with override targets where needed. If you have something like: """ dh $@ --before dh_compress dh_compress -Xsomefile dh $@ --after dh_compress """ It should be replaced by: """ override_dh_compress: dh_compress -Xsomefile """ Please see [1] for more details and the full example. Thanks, Niels [1] https://joeyh.name/blog/entry/debhelper_dh_overrides/
