Oh, I understand now. Since multiarch entered Debian, tcc is built by calling configure manually, not with dh_auto_configure. Since current tcc could be run without manual options, this issue will affect my packaging as well.

 

Grishka, would the following patch be fine with you? I saw you add the change to error out on unknown option.

 

diff --git a/configure b/configure
