Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: module-assistant

Debian changelog:

 module-assistant  (0.11.2) unstable; urgency=low

   * New maintenance release.
   * Improve upstream build system:
      - Tweak toplevel Makefile a bit.
      - Fix install target.
      - Replace $(prefix) with $(DESTDIR) in toplevel Makefile.
      - Adapt packaging now that toplevel Makefile is fixed.
      - Use wildcards to list *.po files.
      - Remove $(POFILES) from .PHONY line.
      - Improve po/Makefile to only rebuild when needed.
      - Use a $(LANGS) variable.
      - Kill various whitespaces.
      - Remove useless TODO directory.
      - Add --statistics to the msgfmt call to monitor the status of
        translations.
      - Chain “make -C po all” from “make all”.
      - Accordingly: No longer need to build and clean the translations
        from debian/rules.
   * Improve upstream documentation:
      - Adjust all half-closed tags.
      - Harmonize tags: use all-lowercase.
      - Fix how SEE ALSO looks.
      - Generate index.html in the doc target.
      - Install index.html under /usr/share/doc/module-assistant.
      - Since both index.html and module-assistant.8 are generated, remove
        them from versioning and remove them in the clean target.
      - Replace kernel-headers with linux-headers everywhere.
   * Improve Debian packaging:
      - Add a Depends: on bzip2 (Closes: #443912, #443769). One could
        hesitate a bit between Recommends and Depends but well, bzip2 isn't
        a huge package, and a majority of modules is shipped through bzip2
        tarballs, so let's make it mandatory.
      - Fix dh_installdeb/dh_installmodules order in templates. Thanks to
        John Wright for both the bug and the patch (Closes: #463488).
      - Switch section from misc to kernel, as agreed with ftpmasters.
      - Tweak prepare-changelog target to support overriding $(LAST).
      - Remove the useless dpkg-parsechangelog trick.
      - Add docbook-utils to Build-Depends for docbook2man.
      - Set LC_ALL=C in debian/rules, rather than LANG=C.
