This bug affects functionality of a self-contained software-package
(alien), contains a patch that works cleanly on the lucid version (8.79)

Fixed in Maverick:
alien (8.81) unstable; urgency=low
* Avoid uninitialized value warning when debian/rules fails to run
due to alien being run in a noexec directory. Closes: #579216
* Prevent DESTROY stomping on alien's exit code sometimes.
* Support extracting lzma compressed RPMs
Excellent - this solves the issue I have with using alien on some SLES
11 kernels.

works on the kernel-xen-base package at
ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/projects/kernel/kotd/SLE11_BRANCH/ for x64.
