+
+=item B<DPKG_BUILD_API>
+
+The build API level to use.
+This is intended to be used internally by the tools executed from
+F<debian/rules> to avoid having to parse F<debian/control> multiple times,
+and not to set the global build API level from F<debian/rules>,
+otherwise build drivers (such as L<dpkg-buildpackage(1)>) cannot access it.
