Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] make debian-package failing

Hi all -

I'm trying to put together a local build of Wireshark; I've downloaded the 1.6.0 release source and built (and run) OK, but it is falling over during the package creation.  A bit of a surprise, as I've done it with previous releases OK.

Here's the commands issued to build:

svn co http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/releases/wireshark-1.6.0 wireshark
cd wireshark
./autogen.sh ; ./configure ; make
make debian-package

...and the tail end of the build output:

ln -s /etc/wireshark/init.lua \
		/home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/share/wireshark/init.lua
mkdir -p /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
cp /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/tools/wireshark_be.py /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/tools/wireshark_gen.py \
			/home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/
mkdir -p /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/include/wireshark/
for F in `cat debian/wireshark-dev.header-files`; do \
		cp --parents $F /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/include/wireshark; \
	done
rm -rf /home/peter/workspace/wireshark/debian/tmp/usr/man

make[1]: *** [install] Error 1

dpkg-buildpackage: error: fakeroot debian/rules binary gave error exit status 2


The only 2 things I can think of are a) should I have added anything to the configure call or b) have I missed a package dependency?  This is Ubuntu 10.10 64 bit, a clean install for this build. 

Many thanks for any assistance,

Peter Bond
