Source: debian-builder
Version: 1.8.0
Severity: normal
Usertags: compat-5-6-removal

Hi,

The package debian-builder uses debhelper with a compat level of 5 or 6,
which is deprecated and scheduled for removal[1].

Please bump the debhelper compat at your earliest convenience
/outside the freeze/!

  * Compat 13 is recommended (supported in stable-backports)

  * Compat 7 is the bare minimum


PLEASE KEEP IN MIND THAT the release team *DOES NOT* accept uploads
with compat bumps during the freeze.

If there is any risk that the fix for this bug might not migrate to
testing before 2021-01-01[3] then please postpone the fix until after
the freeze.


At the time of filing this bug, compat 5 and 6 are expected to be
removed "some time during the development cycle of bookworm".


Thanks,
~Niels

[3] The choice of 2021-01-01 as a "deadline" is set before the actual
freeze deadline to provide a safe cut off point for most people.

Mind you, it is still your responsibility to ensure that the upload
makes it into testing even if you upload before that date.

It would appear that version "1.8.0" actually switched to compat 13:

debian-builder (1.8.0) unstable; urgency=medium

  * QA upload.
  * Take over package maintenance and orphan the package via ITS process.
    (Closes: #962738)
  * Makefile: Fix broken usage of $(DESTDIR) and $(PREFIX).
  * debian/: Refresh packaging scripts:
    + Use "3.0 (native)" source format.
    + Bump debhelper compat to v13.
    + Use dh sequencer.
    + Update info in debian/copyright file.
