[cl-debian] Problem when trying to use pdebuild

[Luca Capello]

Hello!

I was preparing new updates for my CL packages and I was finally
trying to use darcs-buildpackage: previous attempts were bad and as
Peter built anyway my packages before upload them, I never set it up
until now (I need to experience myself with the Ganneff's dak for the
NM queue).

To build my packages, I used a script Peter provided me (which I
didn't include within this mail because I didn't have Peter's
permission), basically it checks some darcs stuff (e.g. if there're
pending changes) and takes care of the epoch.  It then calls debuild.

I'd like to combine this with pdebuild, but I got a strange error (as
this isn't a new upstream version, I'm using the already-present
.orig.tar.gz):

=====

Now, what is strange is that with a normal debuild this doesn't
happen.  rfc2388 is not the only case, so the problem isn't specific
to that package.  If someone wants to try, the updated rfc2388 version
is available from the CD-Debian darcs repository [1].

Has anyone experienced the same bug?  Is this a pdebuild bug (as I
guess) or something else?

Thx, bye,
Gismo / Luca
