Once you've uploaded a file to a PPA, you can never upload a different file with the same name, even if you've deleted the old one. Before you start looking for solutions, you should work out how you got into this situation in the first place. An orig.tar.gz should usually be what the extension suggests: the original upstream tarball. The fact that README.MD differs between two tarballs with the same version means that one of those tarballs is not bit-identical to the actual upstream 1.3.4, so at least one of those tarballs' filenames is a lie. Once you understand how you got here, you have two options: fix your package to build with the existing tarball, or change the version of the new tarball. As dpkg-source says, you'll need to make README.MD match whichever tarball you use. William.
