I see what pbuilder is doing now. I wasn't testing it that way ... pbuilder, and dpkg-buildpackage both execute debian/rules build, rather than debian/rules binary. This is the crux of my problem. My debian/rules build command would build the binary package, and the -src package, rather than just the -src package. Look in the archive for -42. It should build now with apt-get source -b, dpkg-buildpackage, and pbuilder. Hopefully this release will put this bug to rest. I have also updated ucspi-tcp-src with a similar fix, just to head you off at the pass ;) I have also updated the control file, as suggested. Cheers!
