Comment (by zooko):

 Replying to [comment:11 zooko]:
 > I don't understand what the issue is here. It sounds like there is a
 difference of opinion between Debian, which thinks that "make clean"
 should return the directory to the state it was after it was untarred, and
 Daira, who thinks that "make clean" should return the directory to the
 state it was after it was checked out from revision control. Those can't
 both be true.

 Following-up to myself, the reason those can't both be true is that a
 source dist is not just a tarball of a source checkout. It also has a
 version number and (currently) metadata auto-generated.
