[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#834013: emboss, emboss-data: both packages ship /usr/share/man/man1/em_cons.1e.gz

seems you didn't split the dh_link into an arch-indep and an arch-dep
target, and you do the same link regardless of which package they will go inside.

so, the links for the arch-indep seems to be created when building the arch-dep
packages.

probably your local build is broken and builds only arch-dep packages?
I can't say without a build log.


(note: I didn't really debug this issue, the rules file seems overly complicated to me)
