Hi again,

the problem is now [*] fixed. The problem was that the pbuilder
dependency resolver thought that it would be a good idea to install
dh-systemd 1.18 from wheezy-backports while the package clearly said
it wanted dh-systemd >= 1.19. I've now ripped out that dependency from
the wheezy package (like we already do on the older Ubuntu
distributions), so there's now nothing left to be confused about.

Thanks again for the report,
Christoph

[*] well it's fixed now, but the updated packages will take about half
an hour to become visible on apt.pg.o
