I finally decided to turn target 'build' into an alias of target 'build-arch' for all architectures. This is already done in some other packages (e.g. orsa) and cdbs provides explicit support for it. I know there is a bit of controversy on this but Policy is not strictly against it. On Sat, 2008

Some autobuilders wait for build-indep dependencies
