Right, this seems due to a missing dependency simplification step.
I've pushed an untested patch now:

  <https://git.hadrons.org/cgit/debian/dpkg/dpkg.git/commit/?h=pu/buildinfo&id=a3c79c5178d9775686260590b69669aad2dd672a>

will try to test tomorrow, but if some of you can do that, that'd be
much appreciated. ;)

Thanks,
Guillem
