This is ridiculous. If the buildds do "debian/rules binary" they should first install both build-depends and build-depend-indep. As your own arguments show, this would cost very little since few packages actually have build-depend-indep. But those that do, in anticipation of a world in which build-arch and build-indep are used by the buildds, will then not suffer.
I see no downside to this. Do you? --Barak. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
