Earlier, the Makefile is trying to execute

/usr/bin/install -c 
detoxrc /tmp/buildd/detox-1.1.1/debian/tmp/etc/detoxrc.sample

which failed because debian/tmp/etc was not yet created.  So it appears the 
upstream package's Makefile is not parallel-safe, at least with regards to 
the install target.
