But it doesn't build here with pbuilder.
The problem is that the libmspack NEWS is empty and thus can't be added via
debian/patches, but it is required by the build system.

Hmm. I built it with dpkg-buildpackage in the clean git tree. Thanks for
fixing this. I think something like that for testing on my side should
be added.
Do you know by chance if this is something pbuilder related
or something that would fail in general (for instance because patch can
handle empty files)?

This is a limitation of the 3.0 quilt package format.

dpkg warns about this problem, when building the source package:
dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -S
[...]
dpkg-source: warning: newly created empty file 'libclamav/libmspack-0.5alpha/NEWS' will not be represented in diff
[...]

Best regards,
Andreas
