Version: 0.18
Severity: serious

Justification: FTBFS on amd64

Hi,

During a rebuild of all packages in sid, your package failed to build on
amd64.

Relevant part (hopefully):
>  fakeroot debian/rules binary
> test -x debian/rules
> dh_testroot
> dh_clean -k 
> dh_clean: dh_clean -k is deprecated; use dh_prep instead
> dh_installdirs -A 
> mkdir -p "."
> Adding cdbs dependencies to debian/ruby-pkg-tools.substvars
> dh_installdirs -pruby-pkg-tools 
> mkdir -p /«PKGBUILDDIR»/debian/ruby-pkg-tools/usr/share/man/man1

About the archive rebuild: The rebuild was done on EC2 VM instances from
Amazon Web Services, using a clean, minimal and up-to-date chroot. Every
failed build was retried once to eliminate random failures.
