I have been following exactly that.

Have tried on ascii and chimaera hosts - on ascii the build fails
because scons requires newer Python while on chimaera "dpkg-source -b
." exits with 127 without particular reason for that:

dpkg-source -b .
dpkg-source: warning: upstream signing key but no upstream tarball
signature
dpkg-source: info: using options from gpsd-3.20/debian/source/options:
--extend-diff-ignore=^\.travis\.yml$
dpkg-source: info: using source format '3.0 (quilt)'
dpkg-source: info: building gpsd using existing ./gpsd_3.20.orig.tar.gz
dpkg-source: info: using patch list from debian/patches/series
dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -b . subprocess returned exit
status 127

I have got the same error on aarch64/RPI with Devuan/chimaera while
using debuild and could make it work only by renaming dpkg-source and
wrapping it to change 127 to 0 (but obviously that is only a temp
workaround). I suppose there is some problem in latest dpkg-source or I
have missed to install/configure something but couldn't find what it
is.

Can you share some error message that you have seen?

Haven't been on irc last 25+ years ;) Will try to see if I still
remember how that is done.

Will try that. It wouldn't be too hard to rebase my commits on top of
it.

With best regards,
