Digging a bit more and trying different stuffs, I just saw that I've got this in the build.log :
libisofs: WARNING : Can't add /firmware/firmware-linux-free_3.3_all.deb to Joliet tree. Symlinks can only be added to a Rock Ridge tree.
I'm unsure about what it is, but given the definition of this package ("Binary firmware for various drivers in the Linux kernel"), I think it could be related.
Would be great if someone could enlight me about this.
Thanks
Olivier
