Thanks for the additional information. There does indeed seem to be a
bit of a problem there. The tarball seems to include
scripts/package/builddeb.dist and scripts/package/Makefile.dist
instead of scripts/package/builddeb and scripts/package/Makefile.
Persumably the result of some quirk a patch applied to the tarball
before it was uploaded to d.o. I will take a look into it.
In the mean time running the following should allow your build to work.
mv scripts/package/builddeb.dist scripts/package/builddeb
mv scripts/package/Makefile.dist scripts/package/Makefile
