Package: debhelper
Version: 8.9.1
Severity: important

Packages using dh-style rules with overrides are b0rked with make 3.82,
because dh skips the command and informs you about an "empty override".
Check with admesh, for instance:

,----
| $ LANG=C apt-get source -b admesh
| [...]
| dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture i386
|  dpkg-source --before-build admesh-0.95
|  fakeroot debian/rules clean
| dh clean
|    dh_testdir
|    # Skipping dh_auto_clean - empty override
|    dh_clean
|  debian/rules build
| dh build
|    dh_testdir
|    # Skipping dh_auto_configure - empty override
|    dh_auto_build
|    # Skipping dh_auto_test - empty override
|  fakeroot debian/rules binary
| dh binary
|    dh_testroot
|    dh_prep
|    dh_installdirs
|    dh_auto_install
|    dh_install
| cp: cannot stat `debian/tmp/admesh': No such file or directory
| dh_install: cp -a debian/tmp/admesh debian/admesh/usr/bin/ returned exit code 
1
| make: *** [binary] Error 2
| dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 
2
| Build command 'cd admesh-0.95 && dpkg-buildpackage -b -uc' failed.
