Deb was the only one that complained.  And that was solved by a patch that 
changed '(' and ')' to '__'.  This also paves the way for us to use some of the 
per-file dependency information we have to improve the dependency resolution for 
both deb and ipk.

(If IPK fails with this, it wasn't reporting the problem during build or image 
install on my system.  I tests deb, ipk and rpm with this change.)
