FATAL: debian/scripts/misc/prepare-ppa-source

Having done some investigation it looks as if this script can be removed
from the repository.

It relies on a make variable - ppa_file - and forces the
debian/changelog release to "hardy" for all changelog entries using a
global sed replacement.

I looked back through the older release repositories and it seems that
the script was originally added to the Hardy repository along with the
supporting make variables in debian/rules.d/0-common-vars.mk:

ppa_file	:= $(CURDIR)/ppa_build_sha
is_ppa_build	:= $(shell if [ -f $(ppa_file) ] ; then echo yes; fi;)

This code has gone from the Intrepid and Jaunty repositories.
