I get these errors on neither Ubuntu's pbuilder (feisty) nor Debian's.
With which command do you build the package?

Uploaded here:
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/non-free/z/zekr-quran-translations-en

I am doing my best to prepare this package before 30 Aug which is the
deadline of merging new packages to Ubuntu. If it is accepted for

for Gutsy?
