Thanks a lot for reporting the problem. The cause of the error is that
"make deb" assumes it is executed in a directory of the sheepdog git
repository.

If you need the deb package soon, could you try the below commands?

$ git clone https://github.com/sheepdog/sheepdog.git
$ cd sheepdog.git
$ ./autogen.sh
$ ./configure
$ make deb

Making deb package from non-repository source archive isn't supported
now and would need some work. I'll work on it later, sorry.

Thanks,
Hitoshi
