Package: debhelper Version: 11.4 Severity: normal debhelper provides debhelper-compat 9, 10, and 11, but not 12. So, packages that want to try out the new compat level 12 currently have to go back to using debian/compat. Could you please provide debhelper-compat 12?
If there's some reason not to do this, could you please document that reason (and the recommended alternative for packages using that compat level) alongside the documentation for debhelper-compat itself? (Speaking of which, it appears that debhelper(7) doesn't yet document debhelper-compat Build-Depends.) -- System Information: Debian Release: buster/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.18.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=C.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8), LANGUAGE=C.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages debhelper depends on: ii autotools-dev 20180224.1 ii dh-autoreconf 19 ii dh-strip-nondeterminism 0.042-1 ii dpkg 1.19.0.5+b1 ii dpkg-dev 1.19.0.5 ii dwz 0.12-2 ii file 1:5.34-2 ii libdpkg-perl 1.19.0.5 ii man-db 2.8.4-2 ii perl 5.26.2-7 ii po-debconf 1.0.20 debhelper recommends no packages.
