I contemplated filing a similar the other day but in writing it up, I 
realised that lintian was correct. Policy requires that the 'clean' 
target be functional with only the Build-Depends (and Build-Conflicts) 
satisfied, and pybuild + the build-backend dependencies are involved in 
the cleaning step.

cheers
Stuart
