I'm glad you liked my advise. :)
DH_VERBOSE=1 shows all dh_ command that debhelper autamatically runs during
package build. IMHO it is common sense to learn about commands like
dh_clean(1) and the files under "debian/" directory that those commands
recognise...
If you have time to do so it would be nice if you could send a patch upstream
so they could improve their dist(clean) target...
