Because make does not (yet) pass make variables to $(shell) subshells. > >any package handling the flags inline will probably be affected, as I > >don't expect that case to be currently handled. > > I've just checked a random package of mine[0], and it honours noopt just > fine. Try this: $ make -f debian/rules DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=noopt build instead. This just breaks the interface. We could of course simply just document that people should not do that… it's still a regression from when people switched to dpkg-buildflags (me included). (Or get the make bug #327154 fixed. :) Rereading my mail again, it sounded a bit alarmist, the situation is not *that* bad, as in the consequences on normal usage, it just affects probably lots of packages, in case we care.
