Re: Does debhelper handle build-indep ?

[Bill Allombert <allomber@math.u-bordeaux.fr>]

Hello !

I have implemented build-arch/build-indep in my package.
Here is the skeleton of my debian/rules files.
If Bug #72335 go into policy, it will be helpful to have a template file,
so I will appreciate your suggestions and comment about it, and especially
problems because they will be in my package also!

Bill.
