Maybe:
if dpkg-buildpackage requires no local patches to produce a deb?

Surely we should *only* be using debs built by a scratchbox/autobuilder.
Alien arm debs *might* run but you don't know the gcc version etc etc. And the
dependency locally may include a -maemo patched package whereas the
alien/upstream deb won't.

I managed to get ddd built by building a dependency chain in my sb without any
patching. I assume that these would not require -maemo version ids.
