Bug Description

I'm trying to build a deb according to the https://packaging.ubuntu.com/html/packaging-new-software.html
Everything was working 6 months ago. Now when I execute: bzr dh-make hello 2.10 hello-2.10.tar.gz I'm getting:

brz: ERROR: unknown command "dh-make"

I suspect that `bzr dh_make` invokes `/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/breezy/plugins/debian/dh_make.py`. It had `run_dh_make` function in package brz-debian_2.8.32ubuntu1_all.deb. And now it hasn't it in ver 2.8.51. Libs are from Ubuntu repos.
Rallbacking to older version of the lib makes `bzr dh-make` work, but it crashes later anyway.

Was dh-make support removed? Should documentation be updated?

This is intentional on the breezy-debian side - we don't want to support the dh-make command going forward - it's been broken for a while. Please file a bug against the Ubuntu packaging guide.

I guess `bzr dh-make hello 2.10 hello-2.10.tar.gz` from Ubuntu Packaging Guide can be replaced with a few line of commands as a workaround. Can you suggest such replacement? I don't know breezy CVS well enough.
