neither in ./series.
In fact I realized the quilt was taking the series/patches from
../debian/patches
although I have checked that there is no environment variable
interfering.

Not possible anymore, was a cowbuilder chroot.
Slowly thinking about it:
- sudo /usr/sbin/cowbuilder --login
- I am root in the chroot, but my $HOME is somehow still set to /home/norbert
which does not occur in the chroot (why that hasn't been cleaned by
cow/pbuilder I don't know)
- I was building in /tmp/texlive-bin-2009~svnNNNNNN/
- there was a directory /tmp/debian/ (I needed due to fixes)
Could it be that, because $HOME was set to something not existent, quilt
assumed a $HOME of /tmp, and searched the series file in "debian/patches/series"
in the homedirectory, which was /tmp?
Best wishes
