(No + there.) I for one am waiting for this to be accepted for official archive packages, because I want to use Build-Depends: …, dietlibc-dev <!ubuntu>, … for a package recently in *buntu main, where dietlibc isn’t, but where Debian builds should include it. (Actually, probably something like <!ubuntu !nodiet>, one for each optional build dependency.) Build profiles are not _just_ for bootstrapping, they can also help with other obscure tasks. (Something like optional Build-Depends, which can be done using profiles – which will be recorded using the Profile field on the binary package – instead of the rejected Build-Recommends.) bye, //mirabilos -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
