Nowhere.  On the other hand, if you really like it, start porting the DOG
packages to quilt.

As we are at it, here is the shopping list for other easy tasks:

   * Add dh_md5sum before dh_builddeb for the packages not using CDBS.

   * Add "trunk/" to the end of the Vcs-Svn paths, such that debcheckout
     works.

(Adding associated entries to debian/changelog when doing the changes above
are welcome.)
