Package: dpkg
Version: 1.17.10
Severity: wishlist

Hello,

currently, dpkg-maintscript-helper's manpage documents creating various
maintainer scripts to run it.

It turns out that dh_installdeb has support for doing that
automatically, and it should be preferred to manually maintaining
scripts.

Can you please mention in the manpage that the right way to invoke
dpkg-maintscript-helper should be via debian/package.maintscript?

Thank you,

Enrico
