At first glance, this looks like the deliberate change to restore the
level of checks that were done in debhelper in stable.  Please see:

 * #902355
 * #902767 #10

(the original behaviour was to fail on non-globs that matched nothing
but silently accept globs that matched nothing and the given cases seems
to both fail on non-globs)

As implied by the above, I would say this is a bug in get-flash-videos
and asciidoc.

Thanks,
