[Bug 1543820] Re: jmespath.php: add nocheck and stage1 build profiles

[Steve Langasek]

Change in pkg-php-tools versioned build-dep not required for stage1
build profile support, we should omit this change.

It seems like there should be a way to disable the tests without having
to patch DEB_BUILD_PROFILE support into the upstream Makefile.
Certainly for the 'test' target, this could be dealt with in
debian/rules instead using the usual override_dh_auto_test logic. For
the 'coverage' target, the fact that this is a dependency of the 'all'
target makes this harder.  Does the phpab tool support invoking
alternate build targets?

BTW, I think I told you that I don't care about how clean the stage1
implementations are for bootstrapping.  This is absolutely true.
However, because the bootstrap itself is still blocked on the
availability of a suitable php-pear package (and in particular the
Debian orig.tar.gz - bug #1543324), it's useful to "stage" the stage1
implementations in the Ubuntu archive, turning the bootstrap portion
into a simple set of rebuilds of the official Ubuntu source, with
varying build options.  And if the package is going to be staged in the
Ubuntu archive, it should be clean.

As soon as you give us a php-pear package to use for starting the
bootstrap, I will be happy to stop giving you this nitpicky feedback on
the stage1 packages - unless you want it :)
