Niels, I asked this on IRC a couple of times, but then realized you
might not be checking that (as often or at all lately), and should
have included this more explicitly in the MR above! I'd prefer to
upload dpkg after a debhelper upload (as mentioned above) to avoid any
potential fallout in for example autopkgtests, could you prepare one
whenever you have the time? :)
Thanks,
Guillem
