debhelper updates
...
* Use debhelper compat level v7 when building packages. All changes
since v4 seem safe for alien's generated rules files.

(Patch by Duane Waddle, on a bug tracking system I don't frequent, that was
about the "expire" it 4 days from now. We got lucky Duane, but please use
the Debian BTS next time!)

Fix empty field fix, to take into account that "0" is a false value
...
Instead, avoid populating fields with empty strings if rpm fails to
get a field value, either due to not knowing the field, or due to the
field not being set.

Modify maintainer scripts from rpm files to use /bin/bash rather than /bin/sh. Many such scripts are only tested on systems where /bin/sh is bash, and contain bashisms, which can cause trouble when converting the rpm to be used on eg, the Debian family of distributions, where /bin/sh can legitimatly be dash.

* Don't assume that just because we know of a user or are root, that files
can go into the deb owned by that user, and come out right on install.
Instead, assume that any non-root user will not be on the target system
the rpm is installed on, and that it might be created in the preinst or
something, so add permissions fixup code for all such users.
