I understand.

For the moment I modified this package to use the "3.0 (quilt)" I wasn't that
clear on how to use the format, I have to accept.

Yes, I let them there just in case. I don't know whether it is or it isn't
a good idea to let patches without applying them in the debian/directory. But
yes, you are right they weren't applied because they weren't needed anymore.

I am ashamed of my changelog. It wasn't helpful... I apologize. On the other
hand, I believe that tcl-tls is a candidate for removal. Its only reverse
dependence is aMSN:
╭─muammar@ihacku ~
╰─% apt-rdepends -r tcl-tls
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done
tcl-tls
Reverse Depends: amsn (0.98.4-4)
amsn
Which has been already removed from the archive. Unresponsiveness has been
surrounding me since my postgraduate studies are consuming my life...
