This was brought up on IRC by Ansgar when this new behavior showed up. The problem here is that you are building a source package by making a source-only build, disabling dependency checks and cleanup, which means the debian/files gets left behind. If what you want is to just create a source package then the correct thing to do IMO is to just run dpkg-source --build. Of course you might also need to run dpkg-source --before-build and --after-build. But not running clean and expecting things to stay clean seems a bit too much hopeful! :) In principle for 1.19.x, I'd like to move all generated cruft to something like debian/.build/ or similar, which means we could add this to our VCS ignore rules and the above would "work". But otherwise I'm thinking this is a self-inflicted problem? Thanks, Guillem
