Package: debian-policy
Sеvеrity: serious
§4.9 defines build-{arch,indep} and binary-{arch,indep} targets; but
there is no clean-arch or clean-indep! This is a blatant oversight. As a
consequence, buildds waste their precious CPU time on trying to remove
architecture-independent files that aren't there in the first place.
So let's add clean-arch and clean-indep to the policy! \o/
Note that I'm not asking for making these targets mandatory yet.
Maintainers should be given some time (let's say: 12 years) to update
their packages.
