Having subscribed the commit list I noticed that you followed this path of action and so I tried: $ debcheckout --user tille git://git.debian.org/debian-med/libvistaio.git --git-track '*' declared git repository at git+ssh://ti...@git.debian.org/git/debian-med/libvistaio.git git clone git+ssh://ti...@git.debian.org/git/debian-med/libvistaio.git libvistaio ...

It seemed a reasonable idea to do some manual call of the command that failed and thus I tried: (master) $ git checkout pristine-tar Switched to branch 'pristine-tar' (pristine-tar) $ pristine-xz --no-verbose --no-debug --no-keep genxz libvistaio_1.2.14.orig.tar.xz.delta ../libvistaio_1.2.14.orig.tar.xz pristine-xz: delta is for a tar, not a xz Hmmmm, this does not explain much (leaving out the .xz after .tar does not change the error message.
