Looks like the problem is a tar containing an explicit directory entry
for "./". (And even multiple issues. On stable tar -xU fails with tarballs like
that and on unstable there is a problem with rmdir).

This problem should be fixed in the git repository of git-dpm.

Thanks for reporting this one,
