MakeDeb() now expects that all provided tar entries have a non-empty name. Otherwise it panics on array out of bounds access. Fix it. We can create tarballs containing entries with empty name just fine. It makes GNU tar fail when extracting, but it fails gracefully with tar: Substituting `.' for empty member name -rw-r--r-- root/root 0 1970-01-01 01:00 tar: .: Cannot open: File exists tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors

There was a problem hiding this comment.
That feels like a strange case that makes me tempted to just complain about. That said, this is a test package, so I can imagine it being used precisely for testing, so sounds okay I guess.
