Package: pari-gp
Version: 2.3.1-2
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The pari-gp package includes a collection of Emacs macros in
/usr/share/doc/pari-gp/examples.  However, it omits the rather important
pari.el file, without which the rest are rather useless.

The reason for this seems to be overenthusiastic cleaning of the pari.el
file from the source distribution: if you build the binary packages
directly from a pristine copy of the source package then you correctly
obtain a binary package with pari.el; if you run debian/rules clean then
it gets removed and subsequent binary packages are therefore broken.

The patch below fixes the problem for me.
