zack: We are not allowed to generate debian/control

This is not entirely true.

We are not allowed to let debian/control be generated by _default_.

In addition to what Jonas has said the dis-dev package (currently
available under the name cdd-dev, but just renamed in SVN) auto
generates source tarballs by building valid debian/control files
from some templates.  So there are ways to generate debian/control
which is just not allowed in the package build process.

Kind regards
