OK, so I have to add the flags there.

My problem here is: the source package contains libwcs which may be
built (and used) completely without non-free dependencies, and libpgsbox
which needs a non-free library to be built and used.

Is there a way to get libwcs into main and libpgsbox into contrib? Can I
specify build-dependencies separately for each binary package?

Best

Ole
