Obviously, parsechangelog/debian needs a name *AND* an email address.
So I suggest that equivs checks that before executing the scripts, as
the error messages are of little precision and give the impression that
the tool(s) is(are) badly smashed.

This control file builds fine with the current version of equivs
2.3.1. I assume that this actually has been fixed in 2.1.0 from 2017
where I replace the usage dpkg-parsechangelog completely.
Full changelog entry from back then:
equivs (2.1.0) unstable; urgency=low
