Bug#85506: policy 5.2 does not say that binary-indep must be non-interactive



Package: debian-policy
Version: 3.5.0.0
Severity: minor

5.2
Since an interactive debian/rules script makes it impossible to auto-compile
that package and also makes it hard for other people to reproduce the same
binary package, all required targets MUST be non-interactive. At a minimum,
required targets are the ones called by dpkg-buildpackage, namely, clean,
binary, binary-arch, and build.
-- end quote

not binary-indep is not in this list, although it is referred to a few lines
later.
