The deb file can be built with `dpkg-buildpackage` without this change.
However if you want to build a deb using cowbuilder for a different
distribution, you need to create a source package and `.dsc` file. The
`.deps` file will be excluded by default by dpkg, and the deb file will
fail to build.
The fix here is to overwrite the dpkg-source “don't include these files”
argument to remove the `.deps`.
