[Bug 1884836] Re: Groovy+ should stop building and publishing udebs

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

Started to implement this in dpkg
https://salsa.debian.org/xnox/dpkg/-/merge_requests/1/diffs

Added a Vendor hook functionality for build profiles, added ability for
Ubuntu DEB_VENDOR to set the noudeb build profile by default, but also
to override/disable that from the environment.

This will not only work in launchpad, but will also work on any other
standard ways of building Ubuntu packages.

Will attempt to upstream that to debian.

>From launchpad point of view, I do agree that build-profiles is an
archive-distro-arch-series setting. One may want to build certain PPAs
with udebs and primary archive without udebs. And have it as a per
series/arch setting too.

** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => In Progress
