Bug#452215: Add a check to make sure the .diff.gz is clean when debian/patches is used
Package: lintian

It would be nice to have some warnings in case the modification in .diff.gz go out of the scope of
debian/ despite the existence of debian/patches (altough also reporting when the package build-depends
on dpatch or quilt shouldn't harm).
This is based on the idea that if debian/patches is used it means the maintainer may have done something
wrong (.patch left behind under some dir? what about a somedir.orig forgotten?).

Raphael
