It's not a full bootstrap, the basic idea is that Build-Depends-Indep 
will get the build dependencies on the various prj* packages that bring 
the FPGA databases, and will build BE/LE database packages that the go 
into Build-Depends-Arch (with a <!nocheck> qualifier, because they are 
only required to run tests).

So basically you can run either of

     DEB_BUILD_PROFILES=nocheck dpkg-buildpackage -b

or

     dpkg-buildpackage -A
     dpkg -i ../*.deb
     dpkg-buildpackage -B

The latter is what Debian autobuilders do, as arch:all is a separate 
autobuilder.
