[ CCing some more people (submitters to scripts/Makefile.clean) ]
Thanks for your reply and confirmation.
So, how to fix that issue?
Cleanup debian/*tmp dirs within builddeb script for now?
Fix that clean-dirs mechanism (or remove it)? These 4 Makefile#s use it...
Documentation/DocBook/Makefile Makefile scripts/Makefile.clean scripts/package/Makefile
Any help appreciated.
