ProjectQuote is nothing to do with my project which uninspiringly is

rpmbuild must be present because I can build Redhat rpm's and also just
before the Debian build process bombs out it creates both a source and
binary rpm, I have come to the conclusion it must be something to do
with creating the .deb (or converting the rpm's to a .deb).
