Oh, I already uploaded. We will make an update onde the beta is ready.

I would keep the Debian CFLAGS as they are, unless you have a (package)
specific reason not to do so. I think the -g flag is mainly to build
-debug packages.
Space is not wasted since dh_strip removes the debugging symbols from
binaries.

Ubuntu automatically imports them from Debian, and Mint (as far as I
know) from Ubuntu. So, you don't need to do anything here.
