[Bug 1752492] [NEW] mlocate debian patches aren't applied to binary

[Marco Trevisan (Treviño)]

Public bug reported:

Latest bionic version debian source package includes patches, but
they're not actually applied:

mlocate (0.26-2ubuntu2) bionic; urgency=medium

  * Imported patches from upstream:
    - debian/patches/0001-Call-AM_PROG_AR.patch
    - debian/patches/0002-Fix-typos-in-roff-directives.patch
    - debian/patches/0003-Update-gettext-version-to-silence-autotools-warnings.patch
    - debian/patches/0004-Fix-a-typo-in-temporary-umask-value.patch
    - debian/patches/0005-Rename-db.h-include-guard-to-be-more-specific.patch
  * Added patches to improve matching of string (pending upstream review)
    Fixes LP: #1752148:
    - debian/patches/0006-locate-add-transliterate-support-using-iconv-to-matc.patch
    - debian/patches/0007-locate-add-ignore-spaces-option-to-ignore-word-separ.patch

Attached a debdiff with patches applied with quilt and where I've
changed some project metadata.
