I use a script for this: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debichem/unstable/openbabel/debian/watch?view=markup http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debichem/unstable/openbabel/debian/get-orig-source.sh?view=markup There are several other examples in this tree. It is pretty simple. Just replace line 20 in get-orig-source.sh with whatever you want to do here. FYI: I don't make use of uupdate. I don't need it in my setup.
