+Check-Script: debhelper
+Author: Joey Hess <joeyh@debian.org>
+Abbrev: dh
+Type: source
+Unpack-Level: 1
+Info: This looks for common mistakes in debhelper source packages.
+Needs-Info: debfiles, source-control-file
+
+Tag: maintainer-script-lacks-debhelper-token
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: possible
+Info: This package is built using debhelper commands that may modify
+ maintainer scripts, but the maintainer scripts do not contain
+ the "#DEBHELPER#" token debhelper uses to modify them.
+ .
+ Adding the token to the scripts is recommended.
+
+Tag: package-uses-debhelper-but-lacks-build-depends
+Severity: important
+Certainty: possible
+Info: If a package uses debhelper, it must declare a Build-Depends
+ on debhelper.
+
+Tag: package-lacks-versioned-build-depends-on-debhelper
+Severity: minor
+Certainty: certain
+Info: The package doesn't declare a versioned build dependency on
+ debhelper. Recommended practice is to always declare an explicit
+ versioned dependency on debhelper equal to or greater than the
+ compatibility level used by the package, even if the versioned dependency
+ isn't strictly necessary. Having a versioned dependency also helps with
+ backports to older releases and correct builds on partially updated
+ systems.

+
+Tag: dh-make-template-in-source
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: possible
+Info: This package contains debian/*.ex and/or debian/ex.* files
+ installed by dh_make. These are intended to be filled in with the
+ package's details and renamed for use by various debhelper commands.
+ If they are not being used, they should be removed.
+
+Tag: dh_testversion-is-deprecated
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: dh_testversion(1)
+Info: This package calls dh_testversion in its <tt>debian/rules</tt> file.
+ dh_testversion is deprecated. Packages using debhelper should use
+ versioned build dependencies to ensure that the correct version of
+ debhelper is installed.
+
+Tag: dh_dhelp-is-deprecated
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Info: This package calls dh_dhelp in its <tt>debian/rules</tt> file.
+ dh_dhelp is deprecated as it is not part of the canonical debhelper suite
+ and due to be removed since it supports only one single documentation
+ system (dhelp).
+ .
+ Simply use dh_installdocs, which creates doc-base files and supports all of
+ the documentation systems that way.
+
+Tag: dh_suidregister-is-obsolete
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: dh_suidregister(1)
+Info: suidregister is obsoleted by dpkg-statoverride, so registration of
+ files in with dh_suidregister is unnecessary, and even harmful.
+
+Tag: dh-clean-k-is-deprecated
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: dh_clean(1)
+Info: This package calls dh_clean -k in its <tt>debian/rules</tt> file
+ and declares a debhelper compatibility version of at least 7.
+ .
+ debhelper 7 deprecated dh_clean -k in favour of dh_prep.
+
+Tag: debhelper-compat-file-is-empty
+Severity: important
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The source package has an empty debian/compat file. This is an error,
+ the compat level of debhelper should be in there. Note that only the first
+ line of the file is relevant.
+
+Tag: declares-possibly-conflicting-debhelper-compat-versions
+Severity: important
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The source package declares the debhelper compatibility version
+ both in the <tt>debian/compat</tt> file and in the <tt>debian/rules</tt>
+ file. If these ever get out of synchronisation, the package may not build
+ as expected.
+
+Tag: package-uses-deprecated-debhelper-compat-version
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The debhelper compatibility version used by this package is marked
+ as deprecated by the debhelper developer. You should really consider
+ using a newer compatibility version.
+ .
+ The compatibility version can be set in (preferred)
+ <tt>debian/compat</tt> or by setting and exporting DH_COMPAT in
+ <tt>debian/rules</tt>. If it is not set in either place, debhelper
+ defaults to the deprecated compatibility version 1.
+
+Tag: uses-dh-python-with-no-pycompat
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: possible
+Info: This package uses dh_python but apparently does not tell it to use
+ the current Python policy by putting 2 in <tt>debian/pycompat</tt>. This
+ may mean that the package has not been converted to the current Python
+ policy, in which case it probably should be.
+
+Tag: debhelper-but-no-misc-depends
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The source package uses debhelper but it does not use ${misc:Depends} in
+ the given binary package's debian/control entry. This is required so the
+ dependencies are set correctly in case the result of a call to any of the dh_
+ commands cause the package to depend on another package.
+
+Tag: missing-build-dependency-for-dh_-command
+Severity: important
+Certainty: possible
+Info: The source package appears to be using a dh_ command but doesn't build
+ depend on the package that actually provides it. If it uses it, it must
+ build depend on it.
+
+Tag: debhelper-script-needs-versioned-build-depends
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: certain
+Info: The given debhelper script was introduced in a later version of
+ debhelper than the package Build-Depends on. The package Build-Depends
+ should be updated to require that version of debhelper. Giving the
+ version followed by <tt>~</tt> is recommended so that backports will
+ satisfy the dependency.
+ .
+ etch was released with debhelper version 5.0.42, so every package that
+ assumes a newer version should explicitly declare so for the sake of
+ etch backports.
+
+Tag: brace-expansion-in-debhelper-config-file
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: possible
+Info: This debhelper config file appears to use shell brace expansion
+ (such as <tt>{foo,bar}</tt>) to specify files. This happens to work due
+ to an accident of implementation but is not a supported feature. Only
+ <tt>?</tt>, <tt>*</tt>, and <tt>[...]</tt> are supported.
+Ref: debhelper(1)
+
+Tag: weak-dependency-on-misc-depends
+Severity: normal
+Certainty: possible
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The source package declares a weak dependecy on ${misc:Depends} in
+ the given binary package's debian/control entry. A stronger dependency, that
+ is one that ensures the package's installation, is required so that the
+ additional commands are available to the maintainer scripts when they are run.
+
+Tag: debhelper-compat-not-a-number
+Severity: important
+Certainty: certain
+Ref: debhelper(7)
+Info: The debhelper compatibility level specified in
+ <tt>debian/compat</tt> is not a number.
+
+Tag: debhelper-compatibility-level-not-a-number
+Severity: important
+Certainty: possible
+Info: The debhelper compatibility level specified in <tt>debian/rules</tt>
+ is not a number. If you're using make functions or other more complex
+ methods to generate the compatibility level, write the output into
+ <tt>debian/compat</tt> instead of setting DH_COMPAT. The latter should
+ be available for a user to override temporarily.
