Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.16.1 Severity: important File: /usr/bin/dpkg-gencontrol User: d...@packages.debian.org Usertags: dpkg-gencontrol
dpkg-gencontrol generates a tempfile, debian/files.new, and then attempts to rename that back to debian/files when it's done generating the files.new. This can easily break when parallel builds are happening as independent dpkg-gencontrol runs may rename files.new out from underneath each other. This happened in a recent build of the Vim package[0]. dpkg-distaddfile has a similar problem, although I think that's less likely to be encountered since it's not used as much.
