Oh, thank you!

And also thank you for this.

This one was in the category of "extra file which needs to be
removed but it's not used during build", which is easy indeed.

The difficult category would be "file which is modified during build
but we can't remove in the clean target because then the build either
fails or produces a different .deb".

I'm looking at ways to solve at least the first category in a
semi-automatic fashion (parsing the build log, verifying that it fixes
the problem etc) and send patches, but it's still a work in progress.

Thanks.
