# `debhelper-tools-from-autotools-dev-are-deprecated`

The debhelper tools from autotools-dev has been replaced by the tool `dh_update_autotools_config`, which was available in debhelper (>= 9.20160114)

The `dh_update_autotools_config` is run by default via the `dh` command sequencer. If you are using `dh`, you can probably just remove the uses of the tooling from autotools-dev without doing any further changes.

If you use the "classic" debhelper style, then please replace all calls to `dh_autotools-dev_updateconfig` with `dh_update_autotools_config`. The calls to `dh_autotools-dev_restoreconfig` are replaced by `dh_clean`, so they can most likely just be removed without any further changes.

Severity: | `warning`
Experimental: | `false`
