Well, if you have the usual quilt rules, you working copy is also modified until the next debian/rules clean. Here the clean doesn't unapply the patches because the standard state is having the patches applied (that's what you get after dpkg-source -x). > Is a DD expected to only use quilt in that mode?

It's a wiki so people can add their own recommendations over time... Do you really expect me to test all vcs-buildpackage and come up with tips for them? > (In fact there is one, including binary files in .debian.tar.gz, but > since I only need that for the TeX Live packages, and svn-buildpackage > is not ready, I am hosed again) What problem do you get with svn-buildpackage? It doesn't support multiple upstream tarballs but if you don't use that feature it should not be a problem at all... And next time you could ask your questions without doing snide remarks about the work done, you will still get answers...
