Run Debian packaging step locally

We are having build failures on 64bit Ubuntu Xenial but our pre-release tests have all passed and both 64bit Ubuntu Trusty and 64bit Debian Jessie builds pass. We believe there is something going wrong with the Debian packaging step but are not able to test it without running on Jenkins.

Is there a way to run the Debian packaging step of the build jobs that run on Jenkins as part of (or after) the pre-release jobs locally?

You can reproduce the release jobs locally using these instructions: https://github.com/ros-infrastructure/ros_buildfarm/blob/master/doc/jobs/release_jobs.rst#run-the-release-job-locally
