thanks
This rebuild was done by building only architecture:any binary packages
(binary-arch target of debian/rules), and using a recent dpkg that uses the
build-arch target if available.
Specifically the reason this fails is that a wildcard target in
debian/rules matches
build-arch.
The attatched patch fixes the issue by explicity defining build-arch to
be equivilent
to build (the package doesn't build any arch independent packages so
this seems
like the most sensible thing to do). It also includes a NMU changelog
entry, if I get
no maintainer response then I may look for someone to sponsor this as a NMU.
