Hi,
The Debian Technical Committee has been asked to rule on whether to
disallow the use of dpkg's vendor-specific patch support in the Debian
archive. As you either maintain or are interested in a package that
uses this support, you might want to be aware of this discussion and
possibly participate. The bug number is 904302.
Best regards,
