Awesome, thanks!One thing that I noticed is that I apparently can't add the tags to the '%' rule, I do need to override 'dh_auto_build'. That's strange..
TBH, since much of the debhelper's behavior is currently controlled via environment variables, I somehow had expected to set them that way as well. This way, I wouldn't have to add overrides.Michael, have you considered this idea before?

After reading the Debian::Debhelper::Buildsystem::golang perldoc it is not clear to me how to achieve this. (BTW, I would have expected lots of the information found in that perldoc to in the manpage dh_golang(1p).Has this been done in other packages before where I could take inspiration from?Thanks!--regards,
