Any reason why we haven't done this before?
I dislike silencing cruft, as in my packaging development routines cruft is a sign of something potentially forgotten or gone wrong:
A normal packaging build and successive cleanup should leave no traces behind[1].
- Jonas[1] Currently this is not always true when using patches and dpkg source format 3.0 (quit). That is a special case, however, which hopefully will be resolved upstream in dpkg-source and/or git-buildpackage. Until then I personally work around it locally - I noticed that others hardcode workarounds in packaging. which I dislike but (until now) have silently ignored.
