Git-BuildPackage should assemble the package source as an overlay (when “overlay” is specified), *before* calling ‘debuild -S’ or ‘debian/rules clean’ or anything else which requires the source assembled in that directory. For the benefit of readers of the blocked bug reports: Bug#802284 needs to be resolved, by having Git-BuildPackage not attempt to run ‘debian/rules’ until the source working tree is assembled correctly. Currently it attempts to run ‘debian/rules clean’ in a tree that does not yet have the upstream source, so the build fails.

Now though, there are a number of bugs in those packages that are *caused* by making the 'clean' command a no-op. I am marking this bug as blocking resolution of those reports. -- \ “Probably the earliest flyswatters were nothing more than some | `\ sort of striking surface attached to the end of a long stick.” | _o__) —Jack Handey | Ben Finney <b...@benfinney.id.au>
