I hear what you're saying, but in the end it is still a workaround, right? Just uploading a new tarball with every debian revision seems so much more straightforward. I know, some packages might have huge tarballs. On the other hand, some packages like src:linux seem to get a new tarball each time anyway (because often there's no -2?). I imagine each package can do this today, by producing an <upstream-version>+dfsg<N>-1 version for each upload ... Chris
