Please use
reportbug -A <eterm patch> eterm
to report the problem and attach the patch to the report.
That said, you can best build debian packages using debuild (apt-get
install devscripts fakeroot lintian dh-buildinfo build-essential). For
source packages use "debuild -S -sa" to include full source and for
binaries "debuild -b" to include -all packages.
Or "debuild -sa" for source+bin.
