Hmm, it's not good if the package fails to build if DISPLAY is set.

It's hard to know what is happening without seeing the error you got, but my
best guess is that DISPLAY was set to a value which doesn't work in the build
environment.  If that was the problem, then the change in the NMU isn't going
to help at all, and neither will my patch.

If you no longer have the build log, I'll see if I can reproduce the issue.

Cheers,
