Seconded. It would also be nice to have some smarts in dh to handle
multiple -dbg packages. Currently libxcb does this:
override_dh_strip:
set -e; \
for pkg in $$(grep-dctrl -n -F Section libs -s Package <
debian/control); do \
dh_strip -p $$pkg --dbg-package=$${pkg}-dbg; \
done
dh_strip -s --remaining-packages
which is somewhat ugly.
