[Pkg-mozext-maintainers] Bug#783535: Please, allow dh to pass parameters

[David Prévot]

Package: mozilla-devscripts
Version: 0.39
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

It would be nice the xul_ext buildsystem would honor the dh feature to
pass parameters to the program that is run in its dh_auto_* target.

E.g, it would allow us to use a simple rule like:

%:
	dh $@ --with xul-ext --buildsystem=xul_ext -- --remove-license-files -x GPL

instead of overriding the whole dh_auto_install target to pass the
--remove-license-files option to install-xpi:

override_dh_auto_install:
	install-xpi --remove-license-files -x GPL *.xpi

Regards

David

P.-S.: if the GPL file were removed by --remove-license-files, I
wouldn’t complain either ;).
