Interested in something like this for openSUSE. We already have something 
comparable called `_buildenv` (XML) e.g. in 
https://build.opensuse.org/package/binaries/openSUSE:Factory/bash/standard - 
but that is created on the obs_worker level.

[ArchLinux](https://archlinux.org/pacman/BUILDINFO.5.html) seems to have their 
own format with = as delimiter.
In most places, the buildinfo files can probably be handled as opaque files and 
just things like source,binary,version would be interesting outside. That is 
not hard to extract in either format, so there is no strong reason to follow 
Debian here.

OTOH, this is not a .spec file, but just another output from the build process, 
similar to the build log, so it does not need to follow rpm conventions either.

So from my view, using either the Debian or ArchLinux (marshalling) format has 
some advantage over making up a third format. 

Though, I would not keep confusing Debianisms in keys that will not be 
meaningful outside of the respective distribution.
