I highly object to complicant the interface to debian/rules. Environment variables work fine, and are *much* easier to handle, especially if we someday decide to replace debian/rules with something that is not a makefile. > debian/rules -q target > > exit: 2 if target cannot be built (doesn't exist), non-2 otherwise I still completely fail to see why that -q is needed. I can't find any argumentation for introducint it.
