I used to do that, but a few years ago, I switched to (and generalize in all of my packages) using this: $ cat debian/source/options extend-diff-ignore = "^[^/]*[.]egg-info/" That's a way more simple, as sometimes, upstream ships an egg-info and building *modifies* it (and then, nightmare starts...). Just my 2 cents of experience... :) Thomas Goirand (zigo)
