Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.16.3
Severity: wishlist

If the first patch in a 3.0 (quilt) series is reverted by later
patches in the series, then the heuristic used by dpkg-source to
detect if patches are applied fails.  This might sound contrived, but
it can arise if e.g. patches are generated from a version control
system.

A workaround is to add "no-preparation" to options or local-options;
I'm not sure if a nicer solution is possible.
