Package: libutempter0
Version: 1.1.5-2

Hello,

I downloaded your package source and used it to create the two packages for 
lenny. After installing package libutempter0, the 
command 'ls -l /usr/lib/utempter/utempter' shows the following:

-rwxr-xr-x   1 root root       4848 2010-01-19 14:08 utempter

I think that these are not the correct permissions and ownerships, but that 
the file must be owner root, group utmp with setgid bit set. debian/rules 
tells that it was the intention of the package maintainer to set  ownerships 
and permissions like this, but that had no effect on the installed file.

By the way,  in debian/rules the chmod and chown commands must be called in 
opposite order, because chown removes the setgid bit.

Regards
  Christoph

That explains it then.  The versioned build-dep is there for a reason,
debhelper before that version doesn't use override_* targets.  Closing
as not a bug, thanks for following up.

Cheers,
