Hi

I've added to cme a small script to help maintain  Standards-Version field in debian/control file.

Fro details, see https://ddumont.wordpress.com/2024/12/07/new-cme-command-to-update-debian-standards-version-field/

The TL;DR version is

$ cme run update-standards-version -doc
This script updates control's Standards-Version and commit the change.
Before using this script, you must make sure that your package complies with new Debian policy.
For details, see https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/upgrading-checklist.html
example:
  cme run update-standards-version

will commit with message: 'control: declare compliance with Debian policy {{source Standards-Version}}
'

All the best

Dominique
