Severity: wishlist
Hi,
dh_strip implements the new automatic debug packages using the word
"ddeb" (e.g. --ddeb-migration, --ddebs, --no-ddebs). However ddeb was
only used in earlier implementations, at least the packages are now
called foo-dbgsym*.deb, not foo*.ddeb.
I'd suggest to use "dbgsym" instead, to avoid any confusion in the long
run. I think now is still the right time to change this. Maybe keep the
option-names available for compatibility and print a deprecation
warning, but simply do a replace in the documentation.
Greets and thanks
jre
