Yes, I know, but the maintainer-manual said that I should change the directory name, in this case I changed from Expect-1.08 to libexpect-perl-1.08 and IO-Stty-.02 to libio-stty-perl-0.02. That's what made dpkg-buildpackage complain. When I fixed that, everything was fine. So, what should I do? If I don't change there will be problem building the package and if I change the signature will be wrong. Or did I misinterprate the manual, should I only change the name on the tarball?
