Hi Steve,

The trouble with this is that "Source: unavailable" does not describe
the situation.  The source *is*, indeed, available.  The distinction,
rather, is that there is no upstream tarball.

oops, I wasn't aware that the cmake file is all that is needed. So a line like "Source: debmedrepo" would be more appropriate, right?

IMHO, the process would be more robust if, instead, the script uses
the standard Debian method to describe whether the source package has
an upstream tarball + patch, or not.  Specifically, the absense of a
"debian revision" in the Version string [2].

Ok, but can you really say that any native package has no tarball to download?
