This bug was fixed in the package bzr-builddeb - 2.1~0ubuntu1

---------------
bzr-builddeb (2.1~0ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low

  [ Jelmer Vernooij ]
  * Add simple deb: directory service for Bazaar that uses the dpkg Vcs-* fields.
  * Fix mark-uploaded when used in merge mode. (Closes: #500851)
  * Support merging upstream from a Bazaar branch. (Closes: #493386)
   + Also support merging from upstream Subversion branches. (LP: #295275)
  * Make --version option and location argument to merge-upstream optional.
  * Add -d option to merge-upstream.
  * Try to retrieve upstream tarball using get-orig-source rule in
    debian/rules if everything else fails. (Closes: #498622)
  * Support Vcs-Git in the deb: directory service if bzr-git is installed.
  * Use svn-buildpackage configuration when present.
  * Print name of created tag in mark-uploaded. (Closes: #497416)

  [ James Westby ]
  * Support repacking of .zips. Thanks Daniel Hahler.
  * Switch to debuild instead of dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -uc -us. The most
    noticeable change will be that it now tries to sign by default. Add a NEWS
    entry to explain this.
  * Support passing extra options to the builder using "bzr bd -- --foo" syntax.
  * Don't use the distribution name in the tags, fixing myriad issues, but
    giving us a compatibility headache. Old clients won't see the new tags,
    but using the old tags lead to bugs, and the only way to fix that is to
    use the new tags. Not a good situation, but moving forwards we will have
    a much better situation.
  * Update the changelog after merge-upstream, rather than telling the user
    exactly what to run. (LP: #296516)
  * Remove export-upstream mode in favour of merge-upstream, see NEWS.Debian.
  * Use pristine-tar to store and retrieve exact tarballs so that packages
    can be built directly from the branch. In particular merge-upstream and
    import-dsc now store this information. This will avoid problems with
    the .orig.tar.gz changing between uploads. (LP: #317111)
  * Depend on pristine-tar.

  [ Kees Cook ]
  * builder.py: switch to using external tar command to replace buggy
   tarfile unpacker. (Closes: #463349, LP: #303931)
