Alternatively you could stuff them into debian/clean. That should get rid of the warning and thus the need to override. What makes me wonder more though is that you put autotools-dev into the Build-Depends yet do not seem to make use of it. Moreover you specify this package is only suitable to build on i386 and amd64. Most probably these are the only platforms that you've built and tested this on - but apart from this, is there any known limitation why it would not be buildable on any other arch? Shouldn't the source be arch:any rather? Regarding the embedded celt I'm probably as unhappy with the solution as the rest and I'm inclined to say it should be packaged separately to scale better. Yet I also see that'd be stepping quite a lot onto the celt maintainers (who don't want the celt051 in the first place). Your patches are not marked as forwarded upstream. I guess upstream would be interested in them though. So please try to find out about the arch:all issue, add the missing autotools-dev files replacement and report back to get the upload prepared. Thanks! -- Best regards, Kilian
