Doh!

Another option - and a sensible one - is to make dpkg-depcheck failure
a warning, and not an error. Given it only enriches packages to ensure
they can be built with the auto-builder: which doesn't exist for bora
or gregale, making it work is handy - but nowhere near as urgent as on
chinook/diablo.

Cheers,

Andrew
