* Set the version of the Perl Policy to match the version of the Policy
package.
* Explain the Perl module package naming policy more explicitly and
provide some examples. (Closes: #175202)
* Revise the footnote discussing shlibs creation to not talk about the
switch to objdump as if it were a new innovation and to explicitly
mention the NEEDED attribute as the source of dependency information.
* Introduce "control information file" to refer to the contents of the
Debian package control.tar.gz, following the dpkg documentation. Use
that terminology consistently, and change possibly confusing
references to fields in control files to use "control field"
uniformly.
* Document that the first line of the changelog entry is conventionally
an explanation for the upload if the uploader is not the regular
maintainer. Patch from Charles Plessy. (Closes: #589605)
* Fix typo in upgrading-checklist. (Closes: #588750)
* Fix formatting error in footnote to 7.7. (Closes: #589362)
* Remove ancient Conflicts and Replaces.
