I will fix this regression in debhelper with the next upload, once I have found a better way to implement it. The patch I sent fixes it but it will probably complicate fixing #198507 later, so I will prefer not using it if I can do something smarter instead. I have cloned this bug to track the regression separately. Please follow up on the new bug if you have more information about the regression. :) Thanks, ~Niels
