Hi,

Whilst working on the Reproducible Builds effort [0], we noticed
that scowl could not be built reproducibly.

This is, for some reason, dh_fixperms is not being called. I
am not sure why as you are using dh(1) … but maybe there is
something I am missing or not understanding about the .PHONY
targets.

I'll leave it with you but the attached patch fixes this for
me.

Huh; that's really odd.

dh_fixparams *was* being called when I built 2017.08.24-1, but when I
rebuild it currently, it is not being called at all.

I think something slightly more complicated is going on here than just
dh_fixperms not being called. After futzing with things, I think the
issue is that I was stupidly using a build and install target, which
causes all sorts of issues with dh $@ when debhelper no longer tracks
whether it's called all of its rules.
