systemd / cross-building / failure in dpkg-gencontrol

[Michael Biebl]

Hi Helmut,

since we made the changes at debconf to improve
cross-building/bootstrapping in systemd, I get the following failure
when trying to run mk-build-deps -i (from the devscripts package):

Any idea what's going wrong here and how we can fix that?
