[Pkg-freeipa-devel] Bug#1130001: certmonger: please drop the "quilt" build-depency, this is a '3.0 (quilt)' package

Source: certmonger
Version: 0.79.21-1
Severity: important

Dear Maintainers,

certmonger has an extraneous/stale build-dependecy on 'quilt'.

With modern '3.0 (quilt)' packages this build-dependency
is not needed anymore: the task of applying the patches
at build-time is handled by dpkg itself.



The '--with quilt' no-op instruction needs also to be dropped from d/rules.




Greetings

Alexandre
