Message #5 received at submit@bugs.debian.org (full text, mbox, reply):

Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.4.0.8

Extracting the source of many common packages fails.  Most often this
is due to a nested directory structure, but is also triggered by diffs
of files that don't end in a newline (lines starting with \).

This definitely affects jed_0.98.2-2 (nested dir structure).  I can't
remember an example of the newline problem, but there have been at
least two.
