More to the point, the svn-buildpackage build (from apt-get source) does not call intltool - that's done only from SVN when updating translations to save altering the timestamps on the po/*.po files all the time. $ make -C po check The reason this hasn't come up before is because that target is not run unless po/svn-buildpackage.pot does not exist and that file, once generated, is packaged in the svn-buildpackage source using the useNativeDist support in svn-bp. Testing the build with svn-buildpackage itself and in a clean chroot from a clean debcheckout is the only way for me to reproduce this bug. i.e. it can only ever affect the SVN build of the package. There's something badly recursive about that. Indeed, there is a way to build svn-buildpackage SVN "from bare metal" and it doesn't require intltool (because the normal Debian build doesn't try to update the translations and thereby cause timestamp issues): $ debcheckout svn-buildpackage $ cd svn-buildpackage/ $ dpkg-buildpackage -uc -us -I.svn (True, it also doesn't prepare precisely the same source package as would finally be uploaded but then it is fine for testing and looking at a preview of SVN, which is what you needed.) > I was taking a preview at 0.7.1, because I needed orig.tar.bz2 support.

There's no real reason not to add the intltool build-dep, it won't do any harm, but the bug itself is minor. > Works great after that.
