In fact this is a timestamp problem, debian/control has not been generated
on Alpha because it appears after its dependant targets in
glibc_2.3.5-12.1.diff.gz.
I am afraid that a new upload is needed to fix this mess. Adding a
timestamp file in stamp-dir/ looks like a very good idea so that this problem
does not occur again.
Glibc 2.3.5-12 is in /glibc-package/tags/2.3.5-12/ so it is easy to include
12.1 NMU and this fix in SVN. What is the recommended way? Copy this tag
into branches/some-descriptive-name? I will work on this tonight when back
at home, unless someone fixes it in the meantime (or tells that I am wrong ;)).
