I'll take a look into this later today if no one has done so.

The dpkg-divert tests do not fail for me, neither in-tree or out of

to add a variable in the check-local rule, now in master. So debuild
works for me now too.

Nope.

And thanks for testing! Once these have been looked at, I'll probably
ask for some more testing and announce the next upload.
