Beware though that when using dh_gconf (eg for Gnome packages), there is a [http://lists.backports.org/lurker/message/20060830.124936.32b7cb6f.en.html bug]. What's its status now?

Trick 2: you may want to includes the last 2 changelog entries in his your .changes files (yours + the last upstream one, instead of just yours). This is nice, because you know what improvements you can get just by reading the mail notification:

debuild -us -uc -v27+28pre16-1

Currently you need to manually specify the version, I don't know of an automated way to do so, even though it's shouldn't be hard to do.

This one is as simple as Backport dar, except that there is a missing build dependency from stable: debhelper 5. debhelper was already backported so you just have to install it:

aptitude install debhelper/sarge-backports
