Well, on closer inspection I can reproduce it. It is due to the install-info transition and depends on whether the dpkg version of install-info or the one from the new install-info package is found, i.e. on the value of PATH. With /usr/sbin before /usr/bin in $PATH (as in debuild or on the buildds) everything is fine, but running "debian/rules build && fakeroot debian/rules binary" as a normal user without /usr/sbin in $PATH fails: ,---- | rm /usr/local/src/deb-src/emacs23/emacs23-23.1+1/debian/emacs23-common/usr/share/info/emacs-23/dir | rm /usr/local/src/deb-src/emacs23/emacs23-23.1+1/debian/emacs23-common/usr/share/info/emacs-23/dir.old | rm: cannot remove `/usr/local/src/deb-src/emacs23/emacs23-23.1+1/debian/emacs23-common/usr/share/info/emacs-23/dir.old': No such file or directory | make: *** [install] Error 1 `---- ISTM the fix for the problem is to go through debian/rules and replace all "rm $SOMETHING" calls with "rm -f $SOMETHING".
