but then I will still want to bother all those people^wpackages
eventually.

that said, I now can see how the no-op dh-buildinfo helps to bother
less people^wpackages, eg. those which then can be fixed with a binNMU.

and first, someone needs to actually make dh-buildinfo do a noop,
which hopefully won't bother it's maintainer too much.

& personally I'm a bit bothered by such much bothering about
fixing stuff properly, because this just needs a trivial change & and
an upload. (or rather, 300 of them.) 

debian is not frozen. we can fix things today.

Die Faktenlage bzgl. Klimakatastrophe ist so eindeutig und die Folgen sind so
schwerwiegend, dass Parteien und Organisationen, die immer noch wirksame Maß-
nahmen dagegen behindern, als verbrecherisch einzustufen sind.
