Yes, this can be done by adding debian/patches/ubuntu.series that lists all of the patches that need to apply on Ubuntu. The tricky part to remember is that if you add a patch to debian/patches/series, you will probably want to add it to debian/patches/ubuntu.series or Ubuntu won't have that patch applied there. I can do this if there is consensus that we want this. The Debian GNOME team is a bit hesitant about this strategy but it may not be a big deal if this package is mostly maintained by the Accessibility Team. Thanks, Jeremy Bicha
