[Build-common-hackers] Bug#380614: cdbs: creates empty packages on -dbg package creation

[Marc Haber]

Package: cdbs
Severity: normal

Hi,

the documentation says that cdbs will automatically detect a -dbg
package being defined (in debian/control, I suppose?) and call
dh_strip with the appropriate --dbg-package argument.

I tried this today with ksynaptics in order to debug #379902.
Unfortunatlely, simply adding ksynaptics-dbg to debian/control made me
end up with a binary-less ksynaptics.deb.

Looks like either a bug in the docs, or a bug in cdbs itself.

Greetings
Marc
