There is a problem with build dependencies for master on Debian stretch:

dpkg-source --before-build qgis_src
dpkg-checkbuilddeps: error: Unmet build dependencies: libqwt-dev
dpkg-buildpackage: warning: build dependencies/conflicts unsatisfied; aborting
dpkg-buildpackage: warning: (Use -d flag to override.)

The fix is an update to debian/control.in:

*** debian/control.old  2016-02-10 09:54:17.153068743 +0000
--- debian/control.in   2016-02-10 09:54:42.517374036 +0000

"libqwt-dev":https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libqwt-dev&searchon=names&suite=testing&section=all is available on stretch - otherwise the "nightlies":http://dash.orfeo-toolbox.org/buildSummary.php?buildid=217447 should be affected too and replaces "libqwt-qt4-dev":https://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=libqwt5-qt4-dev&searchon=names&suite=testing&section=all.

• resolution was changed from to not reproducable

BTW the nightlies are built in a pbuild/cowbuilder environment - so the evaluated templates land in the source package that is fed to the builder. The original @debian/control@ has a build dependencies to @libqwt-qt4-dev | libqwt-dev@, but the evaluated template has @libqwt-dev@. The builder will only see the second version and try to satisfy that dependency.

So having @libqwt-qt4-dev@ installed in a "regular" environment will satisfy before the templates are evaluated, but not after.
