 Indeed; I was telling a story from the dark ages where .debs were
 crafted with silex in your bare hands.

 That said, -z defs is a good idea to check all intermediate objects and
 to make the build actually fail on the first incorrect intermediate
 object (dpkg-shlibdeps will only tell you at the end of the build and
 only tell you about the installed final objects with missing NEEDED).
