I am only able to reproduce that error if --with-cracklib is passed to 
configure script, which not the case with the official Debian package.

I suspect that the reason you tried rebuilding the package in the first 
place was to link against OpenSSL. The best way to do so is to pass 
DEB_BUILD_OPTIONS=cdbs-autoupdate,ssl (which is officially 
unsupported!). Together, those options updates build-dependencies and 
compile-time options to use OpenSSL.

There's currently a bug in a safety-check in debian/rules causing all 
builds with the above options enabled to fail. It should be obvious 
which lines to comment out in debian/rules to disable that safety-check. 
I would of course appreciate it if you figure out why it doesn't work so 
that annoying bug (happening only with unofficial builds!) can be fixed.


Please tell if you used virgin packaging source and did not pass those 
unofficial build options.


Kind regards,
