Package: quilt
Version: 0.48-2
Severity: important
It is impossible to clone a quilt-patched tree with standard tools.
I tried the following:
* Complete copy with "cp -a" or "cp -r":
Fails on unreadable files in .pc.
* Hardlinked clone with "cp -al":
Fails because quilt appends to .pc/applied-patches and the list of
applied patches gets out-of-sync quickly.
Setting to important as this breaks building of other packages.
