debhelper >= 9.20160709.
New changelog entries:
* Add support for SPARSEMEM_EXTREME mem_section as a pointer. (LP: #1750021)

larger kernels to boot. (LP: #1728115)
New changelog entries:
[ Thadeu Lima de Souza Cascardo ]
* Add ucf support
/etc/default/kdump-tools was already changed by the maintainer script,
so it should not be a conffile. ucf allows the maintainer scripts to ask
the user about changes done by the user to the config file.
Invoking debconf first in the script is desired, because the frontend
might exec and invoke the script itself again. Also, we install the
generated file instead of the original file, as we will replace some of
the settings. (Closes: 877250)
New changelog entries:
* Non-maintainer upload.
* New upstream release. Main new feature:
o Support for sparc64
- sparc64 is supported from this version, it's tested on kernel-4.1.12.
o Add new option for --dump-dmesg
- Introduce the new option "--partial-dmesg", it can exclude the buffers
cleared by "dmesg --clear" while the current --dump-dmesg always extracts
the whole ring buffer.
o Support new kernels
- The supported kernel is updated to 4.11 in this version.
