Bug#714980: apt: Please run dh_clean in debian/rules clean

[Geoffrey Thomas <gthomas@mokafive.com>]

Package: src:apt
Version: 0.9.9
Severity: wishlist

Hi folks,

debian/rules clean doesn't run dh_clean, which means that if you do a 
build and clean in a directory and then do a source build, your source 
package ends up with the debian/$package/ tmpdirs (the results of the last 
build) inside it, as well as some debhelper temp files. This makes my 
debdiffs look silly. Running dh_clean manually fixes this, as you'd 
expect.

It also clears out autom4te.cache, which seems to have ended up in some 
tarballs (like those in Ubuntu's quantal-updates, at least, which is what 
I'm running -- the _presence_ of autom4te.cache in Ubuntu's source 
tarballs makes my debdiffs look differently silly if I run dh_clean before 
building my source tarball).

Can you call dh_clean from debian/rules clean?

Thanks,
