I have used dpatch for some time, and I currently prefer the "simple
patch system" of cdbs.

I agree that quilt and dpatch more or less offer the same functionality.

It's a pity that your attempt to learn quilt has not been fun. I
suggest that you play some games :) and read some Dan Brown :) before
reading any quilt docs again. My point is that you're free to choose
any packaging style for your own packages, so don't use quilt if you
feel it's a waste of your time.
