Hi. I'm reopening those bugs, even if they are old, for convenience only,
as I don't want to file new bugs of this kind yet.

There is a comment in the changelog which describes the problem quite accurately:

    (at least the reasons for the build-after-bugs are gone, maybe others
     are still there)

There is indeed an issue with dpkg-source, as it does not want to
report all the things that are wrong. I've reported that as #1126665.

As a result, fixing these kind of bugs is an iterative process,
requiring several passes. In particular, fixing the "build binary
after binary" has been tricky (and fun), because there is an xml file
which counts the build number (!), the diff reported by dpkg-source
was like this:

--- udm-1.0.0.352+dfsg.orig/udmc.lpi

I've used extend-diff-ignore here. Maybe setting AutoIncrementBuild to
"False" would have also worked, but I preferred not to add extra
patches in debian/patches.

Anyway, this will be fixed in 1.0.0.352+dfsg-2.

Thanks.
