Hi, in linux-source-3.11, we have an issue due to unclear procedure how to use uncompressed data.tar files:
http://bugs.debian.org/725492 While lintian rejects packages with data.tar (in contrast to the compressed data.tar.{...} variants), an uncompressed data.tar.gz that the kernel is currently using (dpkg-source -Xgzip -z0) triggers problems in apt-ftparchive. To implement a correct fix, Ben asked for a decision by dpkg maintainers, FTP team and policy. Basically, the question is if uncompressed data.tar is the correct way (for me, this would be the logical consequence), or rather uncompressed data.tar.gz as linux currently does, but which isn't actually gzip formatted file, or sth. else.
