I actually don't see how dpkg-buildpackage's sign-immediately-after-build defaults ever make sense (except when dpkg-buildpackage was originally written, when debsign didn't yet exist). Why would you want to waste time signing a package you haven't tested yet? Surely the order should be build, test, sign. Accordingly, I have DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-uc -us", together with a bunch of other options that don't matter here, in ~/.devscripts. I've never yet found that I want the other behaviour. -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
