I think this is should be done, or any other way that clearly marks the .tar.gz as modified (even if only files are removed, it is a modification). Anyone downloading a .orig.tar.gz file from debian should be able to safely assume that it really is the "original .tar.gz". If this for any reason is not right, there should be a note attached. The most convenient way to do so is to include a file like this in the tar.gz. The problem of changes of this file is a true one. Therefore, maybe we can agree on a standard wording for these file, something like: ======== This file was modified by the debian package maintainer in the following way: These files were removed: rfc/12345.txt bin/firmware.bin
