Well I looked for this too, but no clue for the moment.
When I execute the build target, this is not empty. It has the wrong content,
because the Make file tries to execute pod2man over the shell script. To make
this more strange it has the content of a different man page:
cipux_refine_homedir (old version from Martin Herweg)
This must be fixted first.

no I didn't even understand the error message

yes, I hope.

ok. Thank you for the accurate Information! This will motivate me to move this
around once more ;-)

As a suggestion from a DD to make a debian native package the debian.log is
the upstream log.
But If we want to make a non native package out of it, It might be a
consideration of changing this and to find a new policy,
For example if you maintain a different changelog and rename the original
changelog to something else than you have the necessary diff for making a non
native package. If we move the original changelog and have both in svn then
we can not get a diff. and therefore we can not make a non native package.
(understandable isn't it?)
I am open to suggestion in that matter anyway.
Greetings
Christian
