Debugging of this is needed to figure out what's not working. But I have a  
pretty good guess.

debhelper wants to run "make check" by default. It's running make check.

For courier packages, the testsuite requires the en_US.UTF-8 locale, and in  
the last couple of years it's become fashionable to strip out all locales  
from all containers, by default.

You need to install the "locales" package in the container and then run  
"locale-gen en_US.UTF-8".

Alternatively, add:

override_dh_auto_test:
<tab>:

to packaging/debian/rules
