It's not going to happen anytime soon, as there would be a relevant
amount of packages failing to build.  An actual test build has yet to
happen (somebody was trying to plan one recently though) and there are
no real numbers.

Another reason that made hard to enable such flags is that -pie would
have cause some noticeble performance issues on i386 before gcc5.

And BTW, that tool would be dpkg :)

Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: normal

Dear Mentors,

I am looking for a sponsor for my nauty package, a mathematical suite 
tools
that deals with graphs. This package brings to Debian the lastest 
release
which is a new minor release that comes with a new copyright notice. 
This
new copyright notie is DFSG-conformant, the upstream team has moved 
from an
ad-hoc license to the Apache 2.0 license [2] (I followed the move by 
passing
from MIT license to Apache 2.0 license to keep things simple).

Best wishes,
Jerome
