Looking at debian/rules, I'm fairly sure that there's no point in
unpacking the archive since we don't ever use the contents. We ship the
pre-built output files.
We were also installing the FHS files twice, which doesn't look necessary.
Manoj, could you double-check this patch? I think it's all that's needed
to fix this.
