Hello. Are you really sure that the above change is correct?

I believe the spirit of nocheck build profile, in plain English, was
that the "outcome" of building the packages should be the same, and
for that to happen, not only the contents of the packages should be
the same, but also the list of generated packages should also be the
same.

Unfortunately, I was unable to find the Debian Policy paragraph
explaining this. Do you have a reference for that?

I am aware that the wiki has some examples where nocheck is used in
Build-profiles in debian/control, but I'm not really sure that's right
if the spirit of nocheck build profile is just to save some time when
building the packages.

Thanks.
