Hello people, while looking at bugs filed in Debian, I stumbled across "please provide a quilt clean command":

Thus, the "magic" involved in cleaning up just boils down to quilt pop -f -a ; rm -rf .pc/ [1] Is that right? Kindly, David [1] given a .pc/.quiltrc does not exist, in which case that one should probably be preserved, and I agree a "quilt clean" might be handy here. -- . ''`.
