I can see where a patch.diff might come in. It may not always be the result of a DD not cleaning out the debian/ directory before building. It may even be an essential part of the build process. Sometimes it's a good idea to have separated patch diffs around, rather than applying them en masse to the source code (except at build time to a copy of the source, usually generated by "cp -l"). This can make handling complex packages much easier. Me? I leave the dh_make comments in for the next poor soul who may have to mangle my packages, or for if I have to modify the build script in the future to use one of the unused targets. -- Paul Martin <pm@debian.org>
