I usually build the package via pbuilder (git buildpackage
--git-builder=pdebuild)
and all ebin directories are there. But when I tried to use git buildpackage
without chrooting (it uses debuild by default I suppose) it removed the ebin
directories (it seemed to export the repository snapshot instead of
extracting
the tarball and applying the debian patches). It looks like a bug in
git-buildpackage,
but I need to investigate further.

Thank you for the bugreport!
