Package: debhelper
Version: 9.20141022
Severity: normal
Dear Maintainer,
I started specifying debug packages for a package and therefore consulted the
WikiPage for that (https://wiki.debian.org/DebugPackage).
There is the example for several debug packages out of a single source package
described, which invokes the -p parameter of dh_strip.
This parameter is not documented in the man page of dh_strip.
