At this point you should probably learn to use dpkg v2 source
archives, which allow patches without "third party" patch applying
code (and build deps).

dpatch uses a "patch patch" format, where the first column is all
pluses; they're really ugly.
Using the new format (which is only a presentation form) is orthogonal
to cdbs/dpatch/quit/simple patch sys usage. Although, I agree, having
a patch system emebedded in dpkg to become the official patch system
would have been a good thing, that is not what the thing is about.
