+ * Non-maintainer upload to fix longstanding l10n and debconf-related issues
+ * Remove the note template and move its text to README.Debian
+ Closes: #388705, #377642
+ This removes the need to depend on debconf and therefore the
+ support for the cdebconf transition. Closes: #331737
+ This also make the debconf translations irrelevant.
+ Closes: #326137, #268367, #318441, #330427
+ * Fix obviously outdated Debian packaging practices to make
+ the package a little bit cleaner:
+ - upgrade the debhelper compatibility to 4
+ - move debhelper to Build-Depends
