I am not trying to build the qmail package, I am trying to build the only package listed in debian/control, i.e. the qmail-src package. It still fails. See Steve's answer: The problem seems to be that your debian/rules is misusing the binary-arch and binary-indep targets for purposes other than building the packages listed in debian/control. > "qmail" is not an "official" Debian package.

Because If you try "apt-get source --build qmail-src" it will most likely fail because the users do not exist. You MUST install the qmail-src package first. won't be true anymore once your package is fixed. This seems to be closely related enough to not deserve a new bug. -- Thomas Huriaux
