Awesome, thanks! One thing that I noticed is that I apparently can't add the tags to the '%' rule, I do need to override 'dh_auto_build'. That's strange..
TBH, since much of the debhelper's behavior is currently controlled via environment variables, I somehow had expected to set them that way as well. This way, I wouldn't have to add overrides. Michael, have you considered this idea before?
