I've been using a clone of git://code.ettus.com/ettus/uhd.git git clone git://code.ettus.com/ettus/uhd.git cd uhd I then did a git remote add of my pkg-uhd.git repo. git remote add pkg-uhd git://anonscm.debian.org/users/bottoms/pkg-uhd.git I checkout out the release_003_003_001 tag. git checkout release_003_003_001 Then I created a debian branch from that. git checkout -b debian Then I merged pkg-uhd into my working debian branch. git pull pkg-uhd git merge remotes/pkg-uhd/experimental Merge remote branch 'remotes/pkg-uhd/experimental' into debian As the debian/copyright file mentions: The upstream package source tarball was generated from the tag: git archive --format=tar --prefix=uhd-3.3.1/ release_003_003_001 | gzip > ../uhd_3.3.1.orig.tar.gz The corresponding UHD images tarball was downloaded from: http://files.ettus.com/uhd_releases/003_003_001/images-only/UHD-images-003.003.001.tar.gz The UHD-images-003.003.001.tar.gz needs to be renamed/copied to uhd_3.3.1.orig-contrib-images.tar.gz in the same directory as uhd_3.3.1.orig.tar.gz. Extract the and mv UHD-images-003.003.001-59f407f contrib-images (Somehow the dpkg source tools know how to do that for you.) (Another way, https://github.com/EttusResearch/UHD-Mirror/archives/master leads to upstream source tarballs. But git seems the direct way.) Then build. debuild -rfakeroot -us -uc There is likely more than one way to do it. Many collab-maint projects simply keep the debian directory and have other ways to handle upstream source.
