Would you mind if I start with a wild guess before looking deeper? A
common problem with dh-exec and debdiff is that debdiff does not
preserve executable bits and I forget too often to hint at this when
submitting a patch. salsa is not responding atm, so I cannot easily
check. If you were to lack the +x bit on the .install file that was
annotated with a profile, it would be taken as is and the profile would
be taken as destination path instead. Thus the file would end up as
missing as we see in your paste. So this is a plausible explanation from
just your mail.

If that happens to not solve your issue, please report back and I'll try
to find a time when salsa doesn't time out.
