One thing with compat 10 that doesn't make a lot of sense to me is how dh_missing is enabled by default but a no-op. It'd make more sense to me to change that in compat 11 to be enabled by default and run with --list-missing (--fail-missing is probably too much at this point), or make it run with --list or --fail-missing, but not enabled by default, and make it an addon. So that one can have: No dh_missing: %: dh $@ Or for dh_missing: %: dh --with missing $@ I think one of those two options would make more sense than the status quo, and I probably lean towards the first option (enabled by default with --list-missing). Thoughts? Let me know if you want a bug report about this. Cheers, Emilio
