Deleted the file, mentioned it in debian/changelog. If I remove the build- depend on quilt lintian throws me: "E: policyd-weight source: missing-build-dependency quilt" > A note at the beginning of patches indicating the reason and author for > the change would be nice.

Can i directly edit the patches or is there another way/tool for it? > >From debian/rules: > > +include /usr/share/quilt/quilt.make > +build-stamp: $(QUILT_STAMPFN) > clean: unpatch I had to leave the line "include /usr/share/quilt/quilt.make" otherwise the package build fails. > These are not needed when using the 3.0 (quilt) source format. > > >From the package description in debian/control: > "Its intended" -> "It is intended" or "policyd-weight is intended".
