Yes. This is precisely as documented:
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and
~/.devscripts are
sourced in that order to set configuration variables.
Command line
options can be used to override configuration file settings.
Environ-
ment variable settings are ignored for this purpose.
In general, scripts in devscripts do not use environment variables to
take settings and their manpages contain the text above.

Adam
