I must have missed something. I thought that the new format was to keep
the debian directory in a tar.gz format. With this format, people who
want to modify upstream sources will have to use a patch system. What is
the plan to make the patch targets in debian/rules unneeded?

Have a nice day (and thank you for your work on a new format for source
pacakages.)
