Public bug reported:
This is a problem in the unity-scope-home source package, version
6.8.2+14.04.20131029.1-0ubuntu1 from Ubuntu 14.04 LTS.
According to Ubuntu policy, the "clean" rule in debian/rules "must undo
any effects that the build and binary targets may have had, except that
it should leave alone any output files created in the parent directory
by a run of a binary target." That target in unity-scope-home does not
do this:
root@chickatrice:/tmp# apt-get source
unity-scope-home=6.8.2+14.04.20131029.1-0ubuntu1 >/dev/null 2>&1
root@chickatrice:/tmp# find unity-scope-home-6.8.2+14.04.20131029.1 >
files.before
root@chickatrice:/tmp# ( cd unity-scope-home-6.8.2+14.04.20131029.1 &&
debian/rules build && debian/rules clean ) >/dev/null 2>&1
root@chickatrice:/tmp# find unity-scope-home-6.8.2+14.04.20131029.1 >
files.after
root@chickatrice:/tmp# diff files.before files.after | grep '^>'

It looks like some of the files generating while building are not
correctly removed while cleaning. This is a problem if (as I do) you
want to convert the package to use the "3.0 (quilt)" source format.
The attached patch seemed to fix the problem for me, but I now worry
about the *.dump files above, which it doesn't touch.
