Then I'm ok then with having 'bdist_deb' be the name and using the

Andrew, what do you think about this solution?
It's already committed as of a couple days ago in the "old-stable"
branch and I just merged it into the master branch.

I'll release 0.3.1 (from the old-stable branch) and 0.4 (from the master
branch) with this soon.

In reviewing the gerry-reno git branch and the old-stable branch I
don't see where there are any user-options declared in
stdeb/command/bdist_deb.py.  Shouldn't the same user-options be there
as are in sdist_dsc.py?  The 'bdist_deb' command usefulness would be
very limited without the ability to pass options to it and hence to
'sdist_dsc'.
What options do you want to pass to it? bdist_deb does very little other
than call dpkg-buildpackage on the result of sdist_dsc.

As far as how -- that's standard distutils. You should be able to follow
the lead from the sdist_dsc command, for example.

Well, for starters, we need to be able to pass the option '--ignore-single-version-externally-managed' and beyond that we need to pass other options down to sdist_dsc, things like '--ignore-install-requires'.

Regards,
Gerry
