dh_strip tries to chose the right strip itself (since approx 2 years ago), so yes it probably deals with this issue for you. > Considering that a lot of packages use debhelper, is it right to > think that adding debhelper to Build-Depends does not make it less > bootstrappable? (I'm considering a switch). It has no real effect on bootrapping because the early part has to be done cross, and debhelper is thus available. It would make things worse for someone trying to do native bootstrapping, but as you say, an awful lot of packages build-dep on debhelper already.
