Sorry, this is not how it works. Debian packages are supposed to build
correctly on Debian. The fact that they build correctly elsewhere is a
nice to have, but a failing build on OBS is not by any means a serious
bug as far as Debian is concerned.

I am downgrading this bug report severity, what does _not_ mean we don't
want to fix it, just that it is not a blocker for a Debian release.
