Ok, I used 'uscan --repack' and it creates cookie-monster_1.0.5.orig.tar.bz2 file with the jar unpacked. Hope now is fine. 'git-buildpackage --git-pristine-tar' works fine. > > PS: Sorry for not having enough time for sponsoring. No worries. I think the package is right now apart from README.source Cheers, Fabrizio. P.S.: in the meantime version 1.1.0 of Cookie Monster is out. (uscan does not grabs it yet). Maybe in this new version the patch for bumping version is no more necessary.
