Yay, thanks a lot! This will become an awesome D-I feature! :-)

Unfortunately it doesn't apply anymore to the current git HEAD
anymore, so I had to slightly adapt your patch.

Main change: Less code duplication with regards to the CFLAGS setting.
:-) The remaining change was only the updated debian/changelog.

Unfortunately there are further issues I need to investigate:

The change

-       dh_auto_build -Ddoc
+       dh_auto_build --builddirectory build -Ddoc

broke the info pages. Lintian warns:

I: screen: package-contains-empty-directory usr/share/info/

And indeed, debdiff confirms that:

Files in first .deb but not in second
-------------------------------------
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-1.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-2.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-3.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-4.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-5.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info-6.gz
-rw-r--r--  root/root   /usr/share/info/screen.info.gz

But I suspect I just need to update debian/info accordingly, too.

                Regards, Axel
