The tarball generated by Makepks does not contain .git.  Do you create
a tarball in a different way for debian?

So configure was mentioned twice which is an obvious bug.  But why do we
want to remove the m4/* files from the list of files to package?

[Ah, they're added inside the m4 directory, ok]

would be cleaner as

#
# If we're on a Debian or Debian-derived system generate deb packages by
# default, else RPM packages.
#
if [ -f /etc/debian_version ]
    type=debian
else
    type=rpm
fi

Note that when you bump package version please always also tag the
result in git.

Btw, didn't readline move to GPLv3 while we have GPLv2 code in libxfs?
