[Bug 1927765] Re: Please backport debhelper 13 to bionic and focal

[Thorsten Glaser]

I’m not aware of the particulars of debhelper in *buntu. I use Debian.

Would those responsible for debhelper in *buntu please just upload these
backports? Thanks.

Title:
  Please backport debhelper 13 to bionic and focal

Status in Focal Backports:
  Won't Fix
Status in debhelper package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  Backporting current Debian packages to *buntu LTS releases is a real
  PITA because of the unavailability of debhelper 13. Please provide
  adequate backports of debhelper 13, ideally the now-current version,
  with all necessary patches applied for correct operation in the older
  release and *buntu-specific changes, to at least the past couple of
  LTS releases, at the *very* least bionic and focal, so we can use them
  in PPAs (and possibly other backports).
