The new lintian release fixed the issue with debhelper, thanks.
I still get the warning anyway, because I also call dpatch from one
of the target clean depends on.
Could you please add dpatch to @rule_depends in checks/fields? I see that you
look for some include lines including files from /usr/share/dpatch, but I do
not include dpatch.make but call it directly (which is ok to do as to the
dpatch manpage).
