Hello,

There was a problem while autobuilding your package with DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip.
Final binaries are still stripped.

If you call dh_strip correctly in debian/rules, this may mean that upstream
is stripping anyway.
You should look for call to strip, ld -s or install -s which may strip binaries.

Control: fixed -1 1.1.3-10.3

I guess this has been fixed at least in 1.1.3-10.3 when d/rules was
switched to dh.

Fixed in 1.1.3-10.3: debian/rules was switched to the dh sequencer, so
dh_strip now honours DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=nostrip, and the upstream Makefiles no
longer strip on install. Verified with a nostrip build of 1.1.3-11 — the
installed binary keeps its debug info.
