You can probably do everything you need from debian/rules, since that is a Makefile. Otherwise you probably end up introducing a patch system, making a patch the makes the Makefile, and generally making life more complicated than needs be. If you already are using quilt or dpatch, then I guess it does not matter, and you might send a Makefile upstream. d -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
