Many thanks for the detailed report! I fixed all issues in the
build-relevant upstream files and in the maintainer scripts (in most
cases I tried to eliminate the usage of temporary files in the first
place). I forwarded all the other issues to upstream so that they can
fix their build and development tools if they want.

I will do a new Debian upload soon, which will contain the fixes (bug
is already 'pending').

Thanks,

Martin
