Hi,
One common pattern for myself is building an equivs package with
mk-build-deps and *then* installing some other useful packages I need
for building packages that are — obviously! — not listed in the
Build-Depends field, for example diffoscope, lintian, tcpdump, etc.
It would be nice if I could do these in one install call, hence an
"--extra-packages" option.
Patch attached.
Regards,
