Hi,
It is not svn-buildpackage which is in charge here, but dpkg-source.
You can ask it for explanation as follows:
/* from your `build-area' directory issue */
~build-area$ dpkg-source -b emboss-5.0.0
dpkg-source: building emboss using existing emboss_5.0.0.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-source: building emboss in emboss_5.0.0-1.diff.gz
dpkg-source: warning: newly created empty file 'debian/patches/series' will
not be represented in diff
dpkg-source: warning: executable mode 0755 of 'debian/manpages/acd2docbook.pl'
will not be represented in diff
dpkg-source: building emboss in emboss_5.0.0-1.dsc
To summarize: debian/patches/series shold not be empty to be represented in
the diff, and debian/manpages/acd2docbook.pl should not be executable... just
call it as: perl script.pl.
