Well, to be honest I just wanted a .deb file to distribute to my VM in order to test
and squash some bugs quickly, and in my machine, it was causing a recompilation every
time I tried to build a new package, (26 minutes withh allyes).

I just wanted to speed up things and avoid the full compilation that deb-pkg was
doing (and mrproper would cause anyway) if I already had everything done.

But I realized that bindeb-pkg does just what I want, so you can ignore this patch,
sorry for the inconvenience.
