Yes, but there is a reason for my funny naming.  The reason I've taken
to putting +repack on my packages is because whenever Launchpad gets a
new .orig.tar.gz from me it checks to see if it has ever seen a file
with this name before (from anyone).  If it does, it does a checksum and
complains (ie. rejects the upload) if the checksum mismatches.  Which it
always does for repacked upstream files.  So my only options in this
case are to either find the repacked file in Launchpad and use that, or
to rename everything.  The former is unfortunately not always
easy/practical.

As far as I know, if the get-orig-source script is carefully written to
set file ownership to root and to pack with "gzip -9 -n" then you can
produce byte-identical repacked tarballs, but I'm just getting a lot of
bounces from Launchpad recently and renaming is the easiest way to get
around them.

Yes, I did do a rebuild for Lucid.  I thought you only had to raise this
number if you specifically needed debhelper 9?

Cheers,
