Problem using dpkg-buildpackage under Maemo-2.1 /Scratchbox apophis

Hi list

I'm trying to build a Debian package under Maemo-2.1
(Scirocco)/Scratchbox (apophis).
I cd to my project directory inside a scratchbox session for user "wrap"

cd maemopad_graeme

and run
[sbox-HOST: ~/maemopad_graeme] > dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us
-sa -D

which gives me the error

unable to get login information for username "wrap"
at /scratchbox/devkits/debian-sarge/lib/dpkg/controllib.pl line 59.
Compilation failed in require
at /scratchbox/devkits/debian-sarge/bin/dpkg-parsechangelog line 15.
dpkg-buildpackage: unable to determine source package

I 've seen an error like this previously reported in the archives for
this list but no reply/fix was given [well that I could find].

Can anyone tell what is going wrong here ?

Thanks
Graeme

Someone isn't following the instructions and is using debian-sarge
devkit. recreate the target
with the devkit selection given in installation instructions or use the
install script to do it automatically
for you.
