Policy 7.6 does, as quoted in my original report. A bigger excerpt
reads (notice the "must be satisfied"):
"The dependencies and conflicts [Build-Depends, Build-Depends-Indep,
Build-Conflicts, and Build-Conflicts-Indep] must be satisfied (as
defined earlier for binary packages) in order to invoke the targets in
debian/rules, as follows:
"Build-Depends, Build-Conflicts
"The Build-Depends and Build-Conflicts fields must be satisfied when
any of the following targets is invoked: build, clean, binary,
binary-arch, build-arch, build-indep and binary-indep."
Do you disagree that the above section of Debian Policy requires
Build-Depends to be installed before invoking ./debian/rules clean?
