I first used git-import-orig, but it failed, since I had not set up my
gitconfig with my correct user.name and user.email. It failed with a
lot of errors. Afterwhile, I tried to fix everything up manually... I
signed and did some commits, then I merged upstream into master.

The upstream tarball is a .tar.gz, not a bz2. I see there are two
tarballs in the pristine-tar branch. I guess I should remove the old
one?

Hmm, yes. I did that.

This caused me some headaches. It seems to be that git-buildpackage
should have kept going, or stopped with warnings. Maybe it did: I am
still new to git.
