Hi Mathieu,

if you do not need other features of the 3.0 format, reverting to 1.0 will be
the simplest option. Otherwise, I think that Raphaël Hertzog gave recently
elements of a solution in his blog.

With the 3.0 (quilt) format, if changes are detected, a patch is created, so
the solution is either to prevent the creation of the patch, or to remove the
cal to patch and unpatch (QUILT_STAMPFN) targets in debian/rules, since in 3.0
(quilt) packages, patches are applied by default at unpack time anyway.

Have a nice day,
