I'd prefer that we were able to merge the two implementations in the

the fork occurred, and the major feature I'm aware of that's
currently only available in debuild.
Ok, I'll open a bug report for this.
Thanks. The list of features you've outlined in the report looks pretty
comprehensive; if I think of any more I'll add them to the list.
In the meantime, however, I may add the *FLAGS{,_APPEND} support to
debuild (and therefore the 10 extra variables to the set that debuild
preserves by default). Are there any other features which it would be
worth adding at the same time?
There have been several changes in dpkg-buildpackage in the last
months:

I leave it up to you to decide which one is worth adding.
Thanks for the pointer.
I've got a couple of patches to debuild which I'm planning on committing
this evening (once I've finished checking that they work) which should
alleviate a lot of the problem, particularly for non-customised debuild
setups.
Regards,
Adam
