Package: debhelper
Version: 6.0.5
Severity: minor
As discussed on debian-devel, it's nice to have deterministic output
for dependency fields. See the thread that started here:
http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2008/02/msg00893.html
Thus I'd suggest you to fix the delsubstvar and addsubstvar functions
in /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Debhelper/Dh_Lib.pm to have deterministic
output in variables created by debhelper-based programs like
dh_pysupport (python:Depends) or dh_installdebconf (misc:Depends).
Replace the lines:
$line=join(", ", keys %items);
With:
$line=join(", ", sort keys %items);
Even nicer would be to sort with a custom algorithm so that
"package (>> 1)" sorts before "package (<< 2)" but I won't complain
if you discard this request. For reference, when I sorted the output of
dpkg-gencontrol I got precisly this request (that's why I'm mentionning
it): http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=455520

Closes: 467100 468959
Changes:
debhelper (6.0.6) unstable; urgency=low
.
* dh_compress: Pass -n to gzip to yeild more reproducible file contents.
The time stamp information need not be contained in the .gz file since the
time stamp is preserved when compressing and decompressing. Closes: #467100
* The order of dependencies generated by debhelper has been completly random
(hash key order), so sort it. Closes: #468959
