LOL
I just don't know perl (un)fortunately to provide a clean patch... nor out of
my ignorance I am sure on the purpose of distributing .egg-info/ by
upstreams
$> zgrep .egg-info deb/docs/Contents-sources.gz | f1 | uniq | wc -l
365
so the question would also be either they get modified at package build-time so
that original versions would need to be placed aside (similar to what
dh_autoreconf does?) and then reverted back upon clean. So general resolution
could go a bit aside of just 'cleaning' through
* preserve present .egg-info somewhere (where below find would not find ;) )
* add to sub clean
$this->doit_in_sourcedir('find', '.', '-name', '*.egg-info', '-exec', 'rm',
'-rf', '{}', ';');
* bring them back and destroy the original copy
or if nothing get modified just remembering the list of them and
excluding them from clean up procedure
