Amazing, thanks!
I've added a bunch of suggestions/comments to the patch: the erroneous
check in debian/rules is for the DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS setting rather than
the DEB_BUILD_PROFILES setting, so it should refer to "options" rather
than "profiles", even though the description for the "nodoc" option
appears on the BuildProfilesSpec wiki page!
I also suggest one tweak to the regex.
Best wishes,
Julian
