[Pkg-dkms-maint] Bug#884658: dkms: Should really depends on dpkg-dev for dpkg-architecture

[Christian Marillat]

Package: dkms
Version: 2.3-3
Severity: important

Dear Maintainer,

dkms depends on "make | build-essential | dpkg-dev" but /usr/sbin/dkms call
explicitly dpkg-architecture in make_debian()

As example, if dpkg-dev isn't installed you can't build virtualbox-guest-dkms modules.

Christian
