Dear Daniel,
If you would like the quilt patches in debian/patches to be applied at build
time and unapplied at clean time, you can have a look at the quilt make command
for CDBS in /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/patchsys-quilt.mk or Debhelper's dh --with
quilt. By ‘quilt patches’ I mean that they will need to be listed in
debian/patches/series.
There is an even simpler solution, /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/simple-patchsys.mk,
but it is deprecated (which makes me sad).
Have a nice day,
