For example, I used apt-build to build and install mono and libmono0.  However, 
mono's source package creates several binary packages, and if you run 
$(apt-build install 
mono), apt-build will only install the "mono" binary package, leaving the rest 
of the binaries to be installed from the non-apt-built Debian mirror, meaning 
they're 
unoptimized.  In the case of a set of packages like mono creates, it seems to 
defeat the purpose of apt-build if you only install one of the binary packages 
that apt-build 
built.

So, there needs to be an option, like --install-all-built-packages (maybe 
that's too long, but at least it's descriptive) that would install all the 
binary packages created 
from a build process.  It should probably be on by default, but it should be 
possible to disable it in case you need to, for some reason.
