[debhelper-devel] Bug#808426: dh_strip(1) still claims ddebs aren't produced automatically

Package: debhelper
Version: 9.20151219

dh_strip(1) thinks ddebs are not yet a thing!

=item B<--ddebs>, B<--no-ddebs>

Control whether B<dh_strip> should be creating ddebs when possible.

Once the Debian archive supports ddebs, debhelper will generate ddebs
by default.  Until then, this option does nothing except to allow you to
pre-emptively disable ddebs if you know the generated ddebs will not
work for your package.

If you want to test the ddebs feature, you can set the environment
variable I<DH_BUILD_DDEBS> to 1.  Keep in mind that the Debian archive
does B<not> accept them yet.  This variable is only a temporary
safeguard and will be removed once the archive is ready to accept
ddebs.
