Err, this isn't how you should build a debian source package.

You should have downloaded the source package. First you need to make sure you have apt-src lines in /etc/apt/sources.list, and then you can simply do:


$ apt-get source bitcoind


Well yeah I had done this, obviously.

Then you need to make sure you have the proper build-dependencies installed:


$ sudo apt-get build-dep bitcoind


Then while in the directory you can do the following to build the package:


$ dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc


But I didn't know about that.   I'll try.
