IMVHO, fixing the optimization+debug flags issue would look nice to me, while hardening flags would just be a bonus. Adding to debian/rules: CFLAGS = $(shell dpkg-buildflags --get CFLAGS) would fix this, keeping the diff short, and it shouldn't be a problem to unblock that kind of fix. Changing debhelper compat and the like isn't exactly something we like at this point, though. On a side note, I see, still in debian/rules: CFLAGS="$(CFLAGS)" LDFLAGS="$(INSTALL_PROGRAM)" ./configure […] Is INSTALL_PROGRAM really what you wanted here or is that a typo? Mraw, KiBi.
