Package: quilt
Version: 0.46-4
Severity: wishlist

A discussion on -devel pointed me to this svn-centric script to convert
dpatch patches to quilt patches. Though not a fully general tool, I'm
quite sure it will be helpful to many of us. Can you please consider
shipping it in the quilt package, under /usr/share/doc/quilt/examples or
something such?

Here is the link:
http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-perl/scripts/dpatch2quilt?op=file&rev=0&sc=0

Also this link, with a doc on how to do the conversion can contain
useful material to be shipped as doc:
http://blog.orebokech.com/2007/08/converting-debian-packages-from-dpatch.html

Many thanks in advance,
Cheers.
