If type-handling is not present, then you have a broken build environment, because type-handling is listed in the Build-Depends: field for samba and Build-Depends *are* required to be present when running the clean target. Nevertheless, this is an issue in that the clean target should not change the contents of debian/control since this may result in a debian/control that differs from that in the source package (owing to changes in the behavior of type-handling). Yes, this should be moved to a separate target. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.
