debhelper.pod: v9 info was added in the wrong place by mistake; move it
to where it belongs so the manpage reads sensibly again.

70. By Steve Langasek

Revert the patch for env variable expansion based on feedback from Joey
Hess. It appears this patch is not as far along the path to upstream
inclusion as I thought it was; sorry for the misunderstanding, Joey.

* multiarch support. FFe LP: #733501.
* merge changes from upstream git:
  - Started work on Debhelper v9. It is still experimental, and more
    changes may be added to that mode.
  - Support multiarch in v9. Thanks, Steve Langasek. Closes: #617761
  - dh_auto_configure: Support multiarch in v9 by passing multiarch
    directories to --libdir and --libexecdir.
  - dh_makeshlibs: Detect packages using multiarch directories and
    make ${misc:Pre-Depends} expand to multiarch-support.
  - Depend on dpkg-dev (>= 1.16.0) for multiarch support. Note to
    backporters: If you remove that dependency, debhelper will fall back
    to not doing multiarch stuff in v9 mode, which is probably what you
    want.
* Add Daniel Silverstone's patch to give us env variable expansions in
  .install/.link files, needed in order to let us use DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH
  without cumbersome .in files everywhere. Closes: #614731.

68. By أحمد المحمودي (Ahmed El-Mahmoudy)

* Merge with Debian (LP: #719150); remaining changes:
  - dh_installinit: Add --upstart-only and --onlyscripts-upstart modes.
  - Add various autoscripts for above: postinst-upstart,
    postinst-upstart-replace, postinst-upstart-restart,
    prerm-upstart, prerm-upstart-norestart, preinst-removeconffile.
  - dh_installudev: Change default init.d symlink priority to 40.
  - dh_installchangelogs: Do not install upstream changelog in compat level
    7. This floods packages with huge upstream changelogs which take
    precious CD space.
  - add dh_apparmor and autoscripts
  - debian/rules: override build target to set executable bit for
    dh_apparmor before actually running dh build, that is in order to get
    the manpage built for dh_apparmor.

* Dropped changes that got fixed upstream:
  - dh_strip, dh_makeshlibs: use triplet-objdump, triplet-objcopy and
    triplet-strip from cross-binutils when cross-compiling; Debian #412118.

releasing version 8.0.0ubuntu2

64. By Steve Langasek

autoscripts postinst-upstart, prerm-upstart, prerm-upstart-norestart
need to use invoke-rc.d instead of calling start/stop directly, so that
they're well-behaved in chroots and other places policy-rc.d may be used.
LP: #690640.

autoscripts/postinst-apparmor: don't 'echo' to stdout. As nice as it
looks, it doesn't play well with debconf and isn't translated. Thanks
to dhcp3 for pointing this out.
