or, if you are using sbuild to build your package, you can use the --source-only-changes option which generates a .changes file for a source-only upload alongside the regular .changes file. It might also not hurt to generate a source-only .changes file for every build with sbuild by putting this into your ~/.sbuildrc: $source_only_changes = 1; cheers, josch
