The wiki source read:

{{{
#!/usr/bin/make -f

include /usr/share/cdbs/1/rules/debhelper.mk
include /usr/share/cdbs/1/class/autotools.mk}}}

But the wiki formatting detection silently swallows up the
#!/usr/bin/make -f line, so it is invisible when reading the page.

I just edited https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Howtos/CDBS (which
is included in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete ) to fix
this by duplicating the #!/usr/bin/make -f line in the wiki source for
that page, so it actually gets displayed (once).
