reopen 457235 thanks Hi, it seems like this was not fixed:
$ debuild -us -uc -j4 debuild: fatal error at line 851: unknown dpkg-buildpackage/debuild option: -j4 $ debuild --version This is debuild, from the Debian devscripts package, version 2.10.14 This code is copyright 1999-2003 by Julian Gilbey <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, all rights reserved.

I'm not so into perl, but it seems like the "-j<jobs>" option is pushed in the dpkg-bp queue (line 797), but in the very next parameter check code, it follows in the unknown case.
