But not too many of them :)
dh_link fixes existing links, so I usually keep this one
unconditionally. I also keep the following, minimally:
dh_installchangelogs # Installs changelog.Debian
dh_installdocs # Installs copyright
dh_link # Fixes existing things
dh_strip # Fixes existing things
dh_compress # Fixes existing things
dh_fixperms # Fixes existing things
dh_installdeb # Does necessary things
dh_shlibdeps # Does things that shouldn't ever hurt, and
# fills in the ${misc:shlibsdepends} variable
# or whatever so I don't see noise from dpkg
dh_gencontrol # Does necessary things
dh_md5sums # Does best-practice things
dh_builddeb # The thing itself
