I was using information from http://release.debian.org/wanna-build.txt . It does not mention -d and does not descrive -o flag.

Actually, it *does* mention -o and even gives an example for give-backs. Admittedly, it doesn't mention that this would also be required for packages currently marked as Failed, but it is there.
The -d flag isn't explicitly mentioned because it was assumed that whoever was performing the action would know it was required. fwiw, the "wb" script also supports a syntax without the "-d" flag, namely:
wb $action $pkgs . $arches [ . $dist ] [. $options ]I'll look at updating the file on release.d.o, unless someone beats me to it.
