Bug#230434: new tar breaks dpkg-deb

[Alex Romosan <romosan@caliban.lbl.gov>]

Package: dpkg
Version: 1.10.18
Severity: grave

looks like the new tar removes the leading ./ from file names so
./DEBIAN/* files get included in the package (the new tar package
is actually an example of this). i think the fix is simply to change
line 469 in dpkg-deb/build.c from:

execlp(FIND,"find",".","-path","./" BUILDCONTROLDIR,"-prune","-o","-print0",(char*)0);

to:

execlp(FIND,"find",".","-path",BUILDCONTROLDIR,"-prune","-o","-print0",(char*)0);

i.e. remove the (now) unnecessary ./
