Mmh. I see your point. What about having "debug" and "strip"? This would allow for: DEB_DEBUG_OPTION=debug nostrip # Build debug packages. DEB_DEBUG_OPTION=debug # Build debug files, but strip them in package. This means, stripping is default. > This alone would address most of (a) and (b).

OTOH, we never can prevent random errors/failure conditions. Thanks, Marcus -- `Rhubarb is no Egyptian god.'
