This is the problem:

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=450518

So either follow the solution that I figured out in that bug, or use
pbuilder (that's what I recommend).

Just do

$ sudo pbuilder --update
$ sudo pbuilder --build libmesh*.dsc

(if you never used pbuilder before, do "--create" instead of "--update")
