Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.68 Severity: wishlist Hi, sometimes for testing purpose, I'd like to install packages with debi even if all dependencies are not resolved. Then i use dpkg -i --force-depends instead ../package.deb instead of debi because it does not pass --force-* options to dpkg. It would be nice to pass some options, or maybe all unknown options to debpkg.
