Given asciidoc was recently restructured with a new package split and
the asciidoc package itself became a meta-package shouldn't you also
take this opportunity to switch your build-dep to something else, like
possibly asciidoc-base?
(Not sure exactly what your needs are and which one of the asciidoc
packages is suitable for you. The rear-doc package only seems to contain
html files though and the asciidoc-base package description makes me
think that's the suitable one.)

Andreas Henriksson
