Firstly, please retain a CC to the bug report, so others may
see this information as well.

That was not at all clear. Indeed, there was very little
information in the bug report (does not work is not enough to
diagnose the problem).

Please send a full log of the process to the bug report, and a
listing of the directory where the .debs should be created
(../). Also, please start with a clean source tree, if possible
(make-kpkg clean should work).
And then use "script" to create a full log of what happened.

I don't think that should be an issue.
