I don't know what exactly is going wrong in your case, but it is very rare that a package wouldn't build from source. Most likely there is something unusual about your local user or system setup that is causing the error. You can try building the package from a new, clean user account to see if that makes any difference. Another way is to use pbuilder. Pbuilder builds package in a clean build environment in a chroot jail. Documentation is here: https://pbuilder.alioth.debian.org/ For example, openvpn 2.4.0-5 builds fine for me with: # pbuilder create # pbuilder build openvpn_2.4.0-5.dsc Best regards Tomaž
