I guess this was caused by a buggy filenamemangle rule in debian/watch,
which should also be fixed:

    $ uscan --destdir . --download-version 3.3.0
    uscan: Newest version of arpack on remote site is 3.3.0, specified download version is 3.3.0
    $ uscan --destdir . --download-version 3.4.0
    uscan: Newest version of arpack on remote site is 3.4.0, specified download version is 3.4.0
    $ uscan --destdir . --download-version 3.5.0
    uscan: Newest version of arpack on remote site is 3.5.0, specified download version is 3.5.0
    $ ls -lgo arpack*.tar.gz
    lrwxrwxrwx 1     18 Sep 13 11:15 arpack_3.3.0.orig.tar.gz -> arpack-ng-0.tar.gz
    lrwxrwxrwx 1     18 Sep 13 11:15 arpack_3.4.0.orig.tar.gz -> arpack-ng-0.tar.gz
    lrwxrwxrwx 1     18 Sep 13 11:15 arpack_3.5.0.orig.tar.gz -> arpack-ng-0.tar.gz
    -rw-r----- 1 937287 Sep 13 11:15 arpack-ng-0.tar.gz
