Hi, :)

Sorry, I did not get your first reply, so I did not see your follow up 
until now.

The documentation lists only its default,  not an exhaustive list.

The field is used to load a Perl Module and there is currently a second 
value (`debputy`) provided you have `debputy` installed. But like with 
`dh` sequence add-ons, more modules could appear in the future.

Thanks for catching that. That is an oversight from me. The 
`X-DH-Compat` field is a replacement for `debian/compat`. I will add it 
shortly.

Best regards,
