Hi,

There is an experimental build of Debian devkit with a newer utilities 
available at [1]. If you want to play around with packages that require 
the latest version of Debhelper, for example, you might want to try this 
devkit.

Be aware, however, that it's an experimental build. Might work for you, 
or it might not. Currently that build contains a mixed system that is 
not officially supported by Debian. The goal is to update all the tools 
in Debian devkit to the latest Debian stable (Etch) somewhere near future.

The dependency relations between the two devkits offered by this package 
has also been reversed. Now debian depends on debian-sarge, and contains 
only those tools that have been updated from the Sarge versions.

Please don't report any bugs resulting from using unofficial builds to 
scratchbox.org bugzilla. Any issues, comments, etc can be sent to 
mailinglists.

At the moment, you can also find and experimental build of doctools 
devkit in [1] with more up-to-date versions of documentation tools.

Happy hacking,
