The source package should support nostrip to generate a package with unstripped binaries, but the resulting binary packages still violate Debian policy themselves and shouldn't be uploaded as is. It doesn't feel right to me to have the output of lintian depend on environment variables like DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS. For example, this would mean that lintian wouldn't catch a mistake by a maintainer in leaving DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS set in his environment after debugging a problem and uploading the resulting packages to Debian. > Also, a link to the relevant section in the Policy would be nice (10.1 > and 10.2).
