    Hi.

    A trick which usually works is to generate the desired file using
    a different filename, then error if the files differ.

    The attached diff will give you an idea, but it's untested.
    (I failed to see how the code in GNUmakefile is reached from debian/rules)

    Thanks.

    Hi Debian folk and thanks for raising this issue.

    By way of background, the logic in debian/GNUmakefile is like this because we build PCP packages for older debian-based releases where potentially different debian/control files are needed, based on the availability of dependent packages (build and run-
    time) in these older environments.

    But we're working on a fix that will not change debian/control in your builds and thus meets the Debian policy requirements.

    We expect to upload new source with the fix by the end of this week.
