Bug#1087494: accountsservice: FTBFS when build directory is not named accountsservice-VERSION

Package: accountsservice
Version: 23.13.9-7
Severity: normal
Tags: ftbfs upstream

I tried adding Salsa-CI to accountsservice:
https://salsa.debian.org/freedesktop-team/accountsservice/-/merge_requests/4

Salsa-CI currently builds in a directory named:
    /builds/freedesktop-team/accountsservice/debian/output/source_dir

but the upstream build system assumes that the build directory will be
either a git clone of the upstream repo, or named e.g.
`accountsservice-23.13.9`. Neither is true on Salsa-CI and as a result,
it fails to build.

I'm reporting this with a non-RC severity because it doesn't break the
build on Debian's official buildds (which use the upstream-expected
directory name accountsservice-23.13.9), but ideally it would be fixed
somehow.
