5. By Russ Allbery

* Avoid calling defined on an array in News::FormArticle. This now
  produces a warning with Perl 5.18.
* Move single-debian-patch and patch-header to local-options. Continue
  to generate a single Debian patch for maintainer changes, but do this
  via local options not included in the source package so that NMUs and
  other changes get versioned patches.
* Suggest default-mta instead of a specific exim4 package default-mta is
  now the preferred virtual package to use as the first dependency to
  indicate whatever the current default MTA in Debian is.
* Merge Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep. This distinction is not
  meaningful when only architecture-independent binary packages are
  built.
* Use xz compression for the debian.tar file.
* Update debhelper compatibility level to V9.
* Update to standards version 3.9.4.
  - Rewrite debian/changelog in copyright-format 1.0.

4. By Russ Allbery

* Add missing =back commands in POD documentation.
* Drop dependency on libnet-perl. This has been part of Perl core for
  forever and doesn't exist even in oldstable.
* Drop version from versioned build-dependency on perl since the
  version was older than oldstable.
* Update debhelper compatibility level to V7.
  - Use debhelper rule minimization.
* Add Vcs-Git and Vcs-Browser control fields.
* Switch to 3.0 (quilt) source format.
* Update standards version to 3.8.4.

3. By Russ Allbery

* Tell Makefile.PL not to create /usr/lib/perl5 and remove the rmdir,
  which fails with Perl 5.10.
* Suggest an MTA for article mailing support.
* Use the recommended watch format and search.cpan.org in copyright.
* Change Homepage to search.cpan.org and move it to a real header.
* Update standards version to 3.7.3 (no changes required).

2. By Russ Allbery

Providing binary-arch in debian/rules is required by Policy even if
there are no arch-dependent packages. Whoops.
