debootstrap is the one. "make check" in 3.0.14 picked up the problem.
Once installed everything started to work.

Description: Bootstrap a basic Debian system
debootstrap is used to create a Debian base system from scratch,
without requiring the availability of dpkg or apt. It does this by
downloading .deb files from a mirror site, and carefully unpacking them
into a directory which can eventually be chrooted into.
