Package: debhelper
Version: 7.3.12
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

Here are two minor control file fixes:
- capitalize Debian as applicable in the long description;
- move "file" and "man-db" to B-D-I and add a lintian source override
  because "po4a" is really used in the "clean" target even though
  lintian can't see it

The patch is against the Git debhelper 7.4.1, although the issues are
present in the version of debhelper in Squeeze and probably earlier, too.

Thanks, and keep up the good work on debhelper!

Move "file" and "man-db" to Build-Depends-Indep, and appease lintian

The bug report said Lintian 2.2.14, so this is probably
build-depends-without-arch-dep, which we removed in 2.3.0.  I must have
missed this bug when doing that.  Closing it now.
