Title:
  debian/source/include-binaries doesn't allow for inclusion of modified
  binaries

Status in dpkg:
  Fix Released
Status in “dpkg” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “dpkg” source package in Lucid:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dpkg

  Overriding an upstream binary, using deb src 3.0 doesn't work as
  advertised (ie, you can't).  For further information, follow the
  debian bug where it has been tracked.

  === SRU Justification ===
  IMPACT: This issue is causing deb src 3.0 packages to not be able to build on the current LTS (Lucid).  The Ubuntu buildd's are based on that, and it's reasonable to assume that other developers will be.
  FIXED: This has been fixed in upstream git, Debian testing and had getting close to a month exposure in Maverick.
  PATCH: Based on Lucid patch (attached)
  TEST CASE: With any Deb Src 3.0 package shipping a binary (ie image) - attempt to override it using deb src 3.0 methods and build a source package.
  REGRESSION POTENTIAL: This would seem to be low, upstream believe it was doing the wrong thing - and refer to the option this upload fixes as previously useless.
