The situation is this: the compilation ends without errors but I cannot
make the deb package because of this check-manifest error. 
I then looked in the debian/README where it was suggested to try 

debian/scripts/manifest-install-reconcile validate

this is the output:

The same error for all the architectures. What does it mean? Can I still
produce a deb package for my system?
