My 2 favourites from the manpage: - The dh_auto_* helpers now resets the environment variables HOME and common XDG_* variable. HOME and XDG_RUNTIME_DIR are each set to a distinct writable directory. The rest of the environment variables are cleared. - The dh command sequencer will now skip all hook and override targets for dh_auto_test, dh_dwz and dh_strip when DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS lists the relevant nocheck / nostrip options. The first allows removing dances with $HOME for packages with testsuites that need a home directory; the latter saves ifeq (,$(filter nocheck,$(DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS))) … endif in an override_dh_auto_test which does more than dh_auto_test (and mkdir etc.), it's now completely skipped.
