-<systemitem role="package">debmake</systemitem>, a precursor to <systemitem
-role="package">debhelper</systemitem>, is a more coarse-grained
-<filename>debian/rules</filename> assistant.  It includes two main programs:
-<command>deb-make</command>, which can be used to help a maintainer convert a
-regular (non-Debian) source archive into a Debian source package; and
-<command>debstd</command>, which incorporates in one big shot the same sort of
-automated functions that one finds in <systemitem

-The consensus is that <systemitem role="package">debmake</systemitem> is now
-deprecated in favor of <systemitem role="package">debhelper</systemitem>.  It
-is a bug to use <systemitem role="package">debmake</systemitem> in new
-packages.  New packages using <systemitem role="package">debmake</systemitem>
-will be rejected from the archive.
