What is the correct way to remove an entire directory and it's contained files with a quilt patch?
Why not do that in debian/rules ?
So you would patch the one file that needs patching, and remove the whole directory from debian/rules, am I following you right?

How would I go about removing that directory? i.e. what call do I need to add to debian/rules?

Doesn't debian/clean work for you?

You can't remove a directory via debian/clean.

Also, debian/clean is used by dh_clean, which is normally called in the clean target. But the clean target is not guaranteed to be run before building the package. (Unpacked source is supposed to be already clean.)
