The brackets are balanced. Using the following sequence (in a
temporary build location but with current git head) everything builds
and looks fine[¹]:
$ git clean -d -X -f
$ autoreconf -f -i
$ ./configure
$ make -C po update-po
$ make -C dselect/po update-po
$ make -C scripts/po update-po
$ make -C man update-po
The only difference I could think off is that I do this on stable, but
I could repeat it in an unstable chroot if necessary.
So sorry, now idea what could have happened.
Greetings
Helge
[1] For some reason all umlauts are removed when I issue
man -l dpkg-shlibdeps.1
Will have to have a look in a real unstable system after the next
upload.
