This is already the case, and has been for a long time. The output is
something like this:
dpkg-source: building fbset using existing fbset_2.1.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-source: building fbset in fbset_2.1-20.diff.gz
dpkg-source: cannot represent change to debian/blob: binary file contents
changed
dpkg-source: building fbset in fbset_2.1-20.dsc
dpkg-source: unrepresentable changes to source
So the line you are reporting is mostly a "summary" of each and every
specific non representable file that has been printed.
regards,
guillem
