I am prototyping an alternative in debhelper that may make this issue
obsolete. At the moment (since 11.1.5) you can use:
Build-Depends: debhelper-compat (= 11)
as a replacement for:
Build-Depends: debhelper (>= 11~)
and d/compat set to 11.
Note the lack of "~" in the debhelper-compat version.
It spews out tons of warnings as it is still experimental. Nonetheless,
feedback appreciated.
Thanks,
~Niels
