Ahhh, so it is regenerated in the Debian package build process but it
conflicts with other parts of the upstream code?  Did I now understood
correctly?

I wonder if we should exclude this kind of autogenerated code inside
the source tarball since we are repackaging the source anyway to exclude
some files for policy reasons.  I'm doing so in other source tarballs
for instance with cython files to be absolutely sure that this code
is regenerated.  This would probably not solve the build issue but might
be a good idea in general.  What do you think?

Kind regards

      Andreas.
