I am (still) building with debbuild, which is just a wrapper for
dpkg-buildpackage. make check is probably called in the beginning.

I have been using the boot-floppies .deb. First it was failing because
python-dev was (as still is!) not mentioned in debian/control.

Then it failed with a compilation error and Marcin Owsiany said:
Again this is my fault :-(
This is something I forgot about during integration of
LANGUAGE_CHOOSER - the Makefile tries to build dbootstrap-lc
even if USE_LANGUAGE_CHOOSER is set to false. I (hopefully) fixed this
last night, in Makefile's revision 1.87

This discussion happend on the mailing list, did nobody read that?

Ive see 2.2.20 appear now, shall I use that one? Last night I tried with a
CVS checkout, might have worked, if my ftp sever hadn't gone away...
