Hi Ivo,

I realised significant differences between your any mine orig.tar.xz and
I'm to lazy to track the reasons down why some files in my tarball where
missing.  I can confirm that the build works now (!!! :-)) but there is
some remaining issue:

E: libsbml5-perl: missing-dependency-on-perlapi
N: 
N:    This package includes a *.so file in /usr/lib/perl5, normally indicating
N:    that it includes a binary Perl module. Binary Perl modules must depend
N:    on perlapi-$Config{version} (from the Config module). If the package is
N:    using debhelper, this problem is usually due to a missing dh_perl call
N:    in debian/rules or a missing ${perl:Depends} substitution variable in
N:    the Depends line in debian/control.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Perl Policy section 4.4.2 (Binary Modules) for details.
N:    
N:    Severity: serious, Certainty: certain
N:    
N:    Check: binaries, Type: binary, udeb
N: 


Since we can not upload with a lintian error I'll take the following
action:

  1. Upload source + build to my http://people.d.o space to enable
     others reconstruct the build in a reproducible manner
  2. Ask for help on debian-perl / debian-mentors list since I think
     ${perl:Depends} is properly set

If anybody might see the problem right now this would be great as well.

Kind regards

        Andreas.
