FYI, I used to get this same problem while compiling sources in RH.
I just circumvented it by increasing the version number a bit, e.g.,
Current version of emacs is:
emacs21_21.3+1-5
I'll make it emacs21_21.3+1-5.1
which was done easily with a script.
I can't tell you how to do it in debian yet, because I'm new to Debian,
and haven't been able to compile emacs (without modification) yet.
