Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.13 Severity: wishlist While dpkg-buildpackage is happy to accept the -j# flag and attempts to build packages using make -j#, debuild does not.
Here is a patch that fixes that problem: http://www.jukie.net/~bart/patches/devscripts/20080117/0001-teach-debuild-about-j.patch I also include it inline below.
