I have added Lintian hook to my Pbuilder environment and now it runs
version from Unstable automatically (at least in Unstable image). Now there
are no errors, only informations about typos in man page.

Andreas, I have solved this problem after some fiddling with my ssh keys.
Now it is OK. I am not sure what was the problem.
In my .git/config I have "git+ssh://
git.debian.org/git/pkg-grass/pg_comparator.git" and I was always able to
SSH in to git.debian.org.
