Ok paged back in my state. The practical problem is that rpmbuild try to lookup the build dependencies which simply aren't present on debian. Patch will be along shortly once I get the glitches fixed. One last issue with building packages. Some distros are still shipping GNU interactive tools so git as a package name for the rpm is problematic. At the very least it is extremely confusing that git-0.99 is a more recent package that git-4.3.20.
