Actually, it would have pointed me pretty much exactly at the problem :)
It is related to a debhelper 13.17 change that made several of my packages that
use compat level 14 FTBFS because they use dh-sequence-single-binary and they 
do not
pass --destdir to an overridden dh_auto_install invocation, so it places the 
files
in the wrong directory.

I already fixed the FTBFS in my local tree a couple of days ago, I will
upload it soon. Thanks!

G'luck,
Peter
