Bug#960657: libdpkg-perl: dpkg-buildpackage should accept pkg.$sourcepackage.$anything DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS flags

[Xavier Guimard]

Package: libdpkg-perl
Version: 1.19.7
Severity: normal

Hi,

while trying to use pkg.$sourcepackage.$anything in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS,
dkg-buildpackage reports:

  dpkg-buildpackage: warning: invalid flag in DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS: 
pkg.node-yarnpkg.test

However it seems that
https://wiki.debian.org/BuildProfileSpec#Registered_profile_names
authorizes such flags

Cheers,
Xavier
