Bug#802356: Latest version (1.8.11) fails to build

[Andreas Tille]

Hi folks,

I cloned the Git archive of libsequence-library-java and tried

libsequence-library-java(master) $ LC_ALL=C uscan --verbose
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
   http://svn.svnkit.com/repos/3rdparty/de.regnis.q.sequence/tags/ (\d.*)/
-- Found the following matching hrefs:
     0.0.1/ (0.0.1)
     1.0.0-rc1/ (1.0.0-rc1)
     1.0.1-rc1/ (1.0.1-rc1)
     1.0.2/ (1.0.2)
     1.0.3/ (1.0.3)
Newest version on remote site is 1.0.3, local version is 1.0.2
 => Newer version available from
    http://svn.svnkit.com/repos/3rdparty/de.regnis.q.sequence/tags/1.0.3/
-- Downloading updated package 1.0.3
-- Checking for common possible upstream OpenPGP signatures
Parameter ../1.0.3 does not look like a tar archive or a zip file. at /usr/bin/mk-origtargz line 330.
uscan: error: mk-origtargz --package libsequence-library-java --version 1.0.3 --compression gzip --directory .. --copyright-file debian/copyright ../1.0.3 gave error exit status 255


No idea how you fetched the orig source before but I doubt that the
debian/watch file could work at all.  Any volunteer to upgrade
libsequence-library-java to (possibly) fix #802356?

Kind regards

       Andreas.
