I have debian sid (unstable) where libgeoip is still 1.3.7, because I 
haven't upgraded in a long while. Then I run apt-get build-deb opensips 
and it says everything is ok, while it is not. Not everything revolves 
around a freshly installed lenny or a recently upgraded sid.

No he is using sid, and make deb fails because apt-get build-dep opensips 
didn't detect that my lib is old and should be upgraded.
