I normally use: $ uscan --verbose --force-download So I can see what is happening, and to overwrite in case there was any funny business with another version of the tarball. I think you need to have a recent version of uscan for the "Files-Excluded" bit to work. That could be the problem - it fooled me the first time. Recording how you did the repacking in get-orig-source is probably handy for the person that packages the next upstream version. Then you can just do: $ debian/rules get-orig-source when you want to download the latest and repack (although you have to check there are no new files that need to be excluded).
