I did not check, but edos-debcheck --help:

  -base FILE Additional binary package control file providing packages 
             that are not checked but used for resolving dependencies

seems to indicate that all packages mentioned in the file are assumed to
be installable. This would mean that the edos-debcheck test could flag
sources as ready for build that will fail to build on the buildds. (I
might be wrong though.)

Greetings,
Joachim

PS: The flag specification is a bit strange here. I’d expect "FILE" to
be a replaceable parameter. I wonder if this flag was ever used, as this
does not look intentional to me...
