Public bug reported:
$ fakeroot dh_builddeb
tar: -: file name read contains nul character
strace-ing the thing yields:
[pid 30927] execve("/bin/tar", ["tar", "-cf", "-", "-T", "-", "--null",
"--no-recursion"], [/* 58 vars */]) = 0
Duh? Say what? That's exactly the point, isn't it?
That error message is spurious under "--null" and should be removed.
