I will restart from a clean sid install today.

Congratulations, your Release 5.1.3-4 worked fine and closed those three tickets concerning MED build and install as well as GEOM install. So now the MED and GEOM modules are present when starting Salome. > > My suspicion is that the geom issue might due to incorrect directory > usage for the OpenCascade data files.

Unfortunately, I still get the same crash for GEOM with the SIGFPE Arithmetic exception, forcing me to kill Salome. I plan to investigate this problem as soon as the documentation is ready.
Thank you very much for your explanations on git-buildpackage and the Debian build process, they clarified many points. My main problem in Salome packaging is that the building process is resource intensive and thus takes lot of time. I sometimes also run out of disk space but that is really part of the fun.
