That should not happen, when you say succeeds, do you mean that it
fails instead because it cannot find the orig source tarball? Because
if you provide it then it should fail again on the missing revision.

Otherwise could you provide a reproducible test case?

If the software is using “3.0 (quilt)” then it needs a revision
otherwise make it “3.0 (native)”.
