Nor does this version...

And this version of gcompris does exist, but is not the current version on
your architecture. Looks to me like you need to apt-get update. :)
There is still a lower-priority bug here, in that gcompris*-data* 7.3.2-1+b1
never existed; gcompris is not binNMU-safe because gcompris depends on
gcompris-data (= ${Source-Version}), but gcompris-data is Arch: all.
Luckily, the latest version of dpkg now supports a new variable,
${source:Version}, which can be used with a build-dependency on dpkg-dev (>=
1.3.19).
