Bug#460838: Please don't ship rules/base in source



Package: xkb-data
Version: 1.1~cvs.20080104.1-1
Severity: wishlist

I don't really know how rules/base works, but it seems to be autogenerated and 
possible not to ship it in the source. I see that even upstream tarballs 
contain it, but maybe the Debian patch could just remove it.
The reason I ask this is that having this file seems to cause problems when 
trying to modify rules. Apparently if I build the package, then edit the 
source code and finally build and retry cleaning, cleaning fails because 
rules/base is updated so unpatching fails:
Le patch add_void_definition_pl-324647.diff ne se retire pas proprement 
(rafraichissez le, ou forcez avec -f)
