if i need to remove src/bin/lz4 folder with debian/rules does that imply that i need to use get-orig-source to repack, and also do i then need to use d/copyright to exclude-files? also if the package requires / builds lz4 do i need to modify the makefile that builds it and do i provide the lz4-dev as a build-depends or . . . just the libs a 'depends' i'll look into packaging the geneet package too, assuming that will be needed.
