How about adding this in the Build-Profiles section after the first paragraph
using Simon's example:
The condition uses the same `restriction formula syntax <s-restrictions>` from
the ``Build-Depends`` field. In the following example, ``libglib2.0-tests`` is
only built if both ``noinsttest`` and ``nogir`` are not enabled:
::
# Build if (!noinsttest) && (!nogir)
Package: libglib2.0-tests
Build-Profiles: <!noinsttest !nogir>
What do you think?
Thanks!
cheers, josch
