Cesare,
 Thank you for looking at this.
 You are correct, there are two issues here.
 To fix the FTBFS bugs, the orig.tar.gz should include the Makefiles, rather than including premake. But a change in the orig.tar.gz forces an uprev. Traditionally, an uprev for wxformbuilder would change the version number from 3.0.54 to 3.0.55, this would imply actual changes in wxformbuilder, not just in the build.
So, I was attempting to release a bug-fix uprev of wxformbuilder at the same time as fixing the FTBFS issues.

 I am both a developer of wxformbuilder upstream, and the package mainter, so I am still trying to figure out the best approach to these problems.

 It seems that I should break from wxformbuilder's traditional versioning scheme, and uprev to 3.0.54.1, or leave the orig.tar.gz alone and put the Makefiles in the diff.gz for now. Which way would be better?
