Not my case, I've got 6GB of free space in /tmp

I ran this and I am attaching the results. Seems like two lines with
string '/tmp/tmp.ahGYBLtVNy/debian/ia32-libdrm2' are attached to the
beginning of the tarfile, so this seems to be the case of junk printed
to stdout...

When I ran the same command, but with ">log 2>&1" appended, it looks like this:

.... before this line it is the same as in file 'stderr'  ....
+ /usr/lib/ia32-libs-tools/convert amd64 libdrm2_2.4.11-1_i386.deb
/tmp/tmp.xqYGOpFGsO/debian/ia32-libdrm2
dch warning: new version (2.4.11-1~18) is less than
the current version number (2.4.11-1).
+ rm -rf debian/ia32-libdrm2/DEBIAN
+ cd debian/ia32-libdrm2/
/tmp/tmp.xqYGOpFGsO/debian/ia32-libdrm2
+ tar -cf - .
... after this, the tar file follows ....

Perhaps this will give the clue where is something printed to stdout....
