Source: antlr4
Version: 4.6-1
Severity: minor
antlr4 is not repacking its orig tarball according to Debian best practice.
Recommended way to do that is through copyright/FilesExcluded header and
"watch" file setting repacksuffix to indicate that tarball has been
processed.
"debian/orig-tar.sh" is redundant as all it does can be done by "uscan".
Also reason for exclusion of files is not documented...
