Package: hexchat
Version: 2.14.2-2+b2
Severity: serious

Hi,
Hexchat appears to use a vendor-specific patch series file (debian/
patches/ubuntu.series)

This is feature of dpkg that can be used to apply a different series
of quilt patches when the source package is unpacked on different
systems. However, since Debian source packages are usually treated as
a pure transport format this can cause confusion and frustration.

Please migrate away from such series files and consider alternatives
such differing source packages or modify the build process to behave
conditionally or to conditionally patch files explicitly.

Refer to https://bugs.debian.org/904302 and https://lists.debian.org/
debian-devel-announce/2018/11/msg00004.html for more details.


Regards,
