I disagree with Scott here. Patches which already have a patch system *should* use patches for *all* modifications to the upstream source. Otherwise this leads to confusion very easily. Usually, a maintainer looks at the packaging, sees debian/patches/, and handles patches there. Updating to a new upstream version is then usually handled by copying over the debian/ directory only, which would drop the inline patch.

Luca, can you please reupload with the correct version number (0.4-3ubuntu0.1 is good), but with your original patch? Thank you!
