*.zip is not a supported upstream compression format in the Debian archive, so git-buildpackage is converting it to something else for you. You will have to repack an upstream distribution in *.zip format to something else, I'm afraid, and therefore won't be able to use the upstream distribution verbatim. -- Russ Allbery ([email protected]) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
