Nothing besides you runs debian/rules distclean.
The required targets are clean, build and binary. Anything else is
just your private thing. No autobuilder, dpkg-buildpackage etc. will
use anything beyond the three above mentions targets.
And prepending a command with a "-" *does make its failure
non-fatal. If it doesn't do this for you, the error is somewhere else.
Look at this. I have "-rm ..." in debian/rules, which will result in
[...]
rm: cannot remove `src/axyftp-gtk': No such file or directory
make: [clean] Error 1 (ignored)
rm src/axyftp-lesstif
rm: cannot remove `src/axyftp-lesstif': No such file or directory
make: [clean] Error 1 (ignored)
[...]
if the files to remove are not present.
It would be better, if you made the source and debian diff available,
so we can have a better look.
Ciao,
