philipp beitz, thank you for the hint with prevu. This makes it easy and allows even building packages for distros other than the currently running one.
You can build for any Ubuntu version regardless of what is running on your build host, simply by replacing "gutsy" with the name of the target Ubuntu version.

Anyone who wants to test simply do
sudo apt-get install prevu /www.linux- foundation. org/~till/ tmp/ubuntu/ gutsy/ghostscri pt/ghostscript_ 8.61.dfsg. 1~svn8187- 0ubuntu3. 3.dsc
sudo DIST=gutsy prevu-init
DIST=gutsy prevu https:/
