Currently dpkg-architecture and dpkg-parsechangelogs allow printing

gives an error message without parameters.  Please provide a mode

makefile/rules file only needs one invocation of dpkg-architecture
and use use makefile magic to split out the needed values.

See dpkg-buildflags --export.  e.g.:

Yes, --export serves this purpose. Matthias, is this enough for you?
If yes please close the bug.

I do think it would be intuitive

        dpkg-buildflags

with no arguments to print something simple and useful, unless you are
reserving that syntax for future expansion.

But yeah, --export takes care of most use cases already.

thanks for the pointer, I'll use this, but dpkg-buildflags working without parameters would be nice. Please close the report if you choose to not implementing this. Any reason why --export=make uses := and not =?
