.orig.tar.gz implies an original upstream source archive, which doesn't apply to that package. If a .tar.gz isn't suitable, then nothing is, in which case this should be discussed on Debian policy. I think .tar.gz (not .orig.tar.gz) is appropriate for this package. Hamish -- Hamish Moffatt VK3SB <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
