Actually, lenny + p-u is OK. Meaning .27 indeed fixes this bug. :) Open questions AFAICT: - why was the previous upload accepted? Maybe less checks being run at the time, e.g. not involving dpkg-source? - and a related question: which is the dpkg(-dev) version currently running on ries et al.? Mraw, KiBi.
