It wouldn't work as dpkg wouldn't be able to unpack it, since the compression format hasn't changed, only the filename. The 1.0 source format only supports gzip-compressed orig tarballs, and use the presence of the said tarball to determin whether a package is native or not. The 3.0 formats, on the other hand, support bz2 and xz as compression format, but require an explicit format declaration in debian/source/format, either "3.0 (quilt)" or "3.0 (native)". You want the format. Cheers, Simon
