Good point; as usage of this helper is entirely optional, just like a .pc file, I think it's up to the pacakge using dh_* commands to bdep on debhelper, but we should at least recommend it for developers installing this package. I just added the recommendation in pango and gtk dev packages as these ship dh_* commands as well. -- Loïc Minier -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
