Quick feedback:
[list=1][*]No Version Control in script (version number, date).[*]No author information or revision history.[*]No URL to archive where updated source may be found.[/list=1]
Just my quick thoughts. The last one might not be so important, but the first two are, even if the script is only used by one person.

dpatch
DPATCH(7) dpatch DPATCH(7)
NAME
debian/patches/script.dpatch - self applying patch
SYNOPSIS
debian/patches/script.dpatch -patch [directory]
debian/patches/script.dpatch -unpatch [directory]
debian/patches/script.dpatch -pkg-custom [directory]
DESCRIPTION
A dpatch is a program that modifies the source tree in a given directory. How it does that is entirely up to the person writing it. It can
be a script that calls patch(1) with the appropriate options, a complicated perl script that does some deep magic, or anything else. The
only requirement is that it MUST accept the -patch and -unpatch options, followed by the destination (or working) directory, when speci-
fied. For the sake of compatibility, the second argument is only present when a working directory was explicitly set with dpatch --workdir.
For some of the dpatch(1) features to work, the script should follow a common style: there should be a line near the top of the file with
the following format: "filename -- author <email>". And one or more "# DP: description" lines. These will be used by dpatch cat for exam-
ple.
WARNING
dpatch is deprecated, please switch to the `3.0 (quilt)' Debian source package format instead. See http://wiki.debian.org/Projects/Deb-
Src3.0#FAQ for a short guide on how to do it.
EXAMPLES
One can find dpatch examples under /usr/share/doc/dpatch/examples/.
