Thanks for the bug report! This points out that the package currently should have a versioned "Build-Depends: dpkg-dev (>= 1.17.0)" with the current code in debian/rules. > replace the "export DEBIAN_REVISION.." line with: > export DEBIAN_REVISION ?= $(shell dpkg-parsechangelog | sed -n -e > 's/^Version: [^+]*\(+[A-Za-z0-9.~-]*\).*/\1/p') > > Please include this change to allow easy compilation on systems with older > dpkg tools. Sorry about that, I generally prefer to have packages be buildable on stable when it's reasonably easy. Unfortunately, this may not be important enough to warrant a freeze exception... A slightly simpler patch that's a smaller (hopefully easier to read) diff: diff --git a/debian/rules b/debian/rules index 86a475a..e893217 100755 --- a/debian/rules +++ b/debian/rules @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ DEB_HOST_ARCH ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_ARCH) DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE) DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE) -export DEBIAN_REVISION ?= $(shell dpkg-parsechangelog --show-field Version | sed -e 's,.*+dfsg,+dfsg,') +export DEBIAN_REVISION ?= $(shell dpkg-parsechangelog | sed -n -e 's,^Version:.*+dfsg,+dfsg,p') ifneq ($(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE),$(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE)) export CROSS_COMPILE ?= $(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE)- live well, vagrant
