[Build-common-hackers] Bug#462130: -dbg packages are not handled automatically with compat=6

[Modestas Vainius]

Package: cdbs
Version: 0.4.50
Severity: important
Tags: patch

Hello,

when debhelper compat level is set to 6, -dbg package ends up empty
contrary to the behaviour when compat is 5. I think the bug is rather
important because it is very unexpected and undesired behaviour might
be left unnoticed for quite a while. The patch for debhelper.mk is
attached.
