trn4 >= 4.0-test77-1 does in fact use the 3.0 (quilt) format. It may well be that the source package rearrangements involved in converting to this have made this bug go away. > dpkg-source: unrepresentable changes to source > > A full transcript is below, and also my shell history.

It's somewhat as if the Makefile has been removed at some point without actually cleaning up, thus leaving binary crud behind in your tree, but I can't see what would do that. Do you still have the broken tree lying around? If you could tar it up and send it to me then I could take a look.
