I suspect this report has been misdirected, because dpkg only has explicit support for DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS that it can act on (see for example dpkg-buildpackage(1) or dpkg-buildflags(1)). In this case I don't think there's anything that dpkg can do about this new option? I think this might be more appropriate as a Debian policy report, looking for consensus on documenting this usage, if people agree with it. I'd also like to mention that it might be worth diverging from existing practice of tucking multiple words together with no separators, which I've considered to be a non-ideal practice for a while (where I think I might have made it worse when adding support for new options/keywords from the original no<something> pattern). Thanks, Guillem
