However, there's some packages using another method: override_dh_auto_configure: dh_auto_configure -- LDFLAGS="$(LDFLAGS) -Wl,--as-needed"NOTE: this method doesn't work !That depends on the autoconf version. Earlier versions require an environment variable, later ones accept variables as arguments as well. It might be an interesting idea to have debhelper work around old configure scripts by exporting anything that looks like a variable definition on the configure command line.
No, that would be silly. There's already too much magic behind debhelper these days.
