Pkg exim4 users - Jan 2007 - Exim4 custom build fails with dh_testdir: unknown option; aborting

I could use some guidance on compiling Exim4 the Debian way.  I''m 
close, but
could be going wrong in any number of ways.

I get the binary built, but then it fails with

	dh_testdir -p"" -pexim4-daemon-custom -pexim4-daemon-custom-dbg
-p""
	Option p requires an argument
	dh_testdir: unknown option; aborting

I want to compile Exim just like Exim-daemon-heavy, except with 
Domainkeys.

The documentation says to use Exim-daemon-light, but I have substituted 
heavy,
not sure if that is sending me down the wrong path or not.

The debian/rules document talks about

# to EDITME.exim4-custom and modify it. Please note that you _need_ to
# modify EDITME.exim4-custom or your build will fail due to #386188.


I have modifiedEDITME.exim4-custom to include

EXPERIMENTAL_DOMAINKEYS=yes
LDFLAGS += -ldomainkeys

Otherwise the file is the same as the EDITME.exim4-heavy.  Not sure
if Debian bug 386188 is impacting me or not.

I''m running the following steps.


apt-get --assume-yes install exim4-daemon-heavy
apt-get --assume-yes install exim4-base
apt-get --assume-yes install exim4-config    
apt-get --assume-yes install build-essential
apt-get --assume-yes install dpkg-dev
apt-get --assume-yes install fakeroot
apt-get --assume-yes install debhelper

apt-get build-dep exim4

cd /usr/local/src

apt-get source --download-only exim4
dpkg-source -x exim4_4.63-12.dsc

cd /usr/local/src/exim4-4.63

fakeroot debian/rules unpack-configs

cp /usr/local/bin/Makefile_Etch_Domainkeys 
/usr/local/src/exim4-4.63/EDITME.exim4-custom

fakeroot debian/rules buildbasepackages=no 
extradaemonpackages=exim4-daemon-custom binary




Which fails like this

Any suggestions ?

Thank you.

This is a bug which was fixed in exim4 4.63-14.
