I am currently making some changes we discussed last month on the list,
but the current "policy" is reflected in the dh-make-php Debian package.
I made some minor changes. There is still one major change which removes
the need for creating package.tgz. Uwe and I ironed out the changes, and
he implemented them in dh-make-php, but I don't have the time to right
now to pull them out and modify this document. If Uwe or anyone else is
interested in updating the document to reflect that change, it would be
a good thing. If not, Perhaps in several weeks I'll be able to spend a
little more time updating the document.
In the mean time, my personal recommendation is to simply use
dh-make-php, and then to file bugs and discuss issues with it on this
list.
