Given that the source has been repacked, you need a +dfsg or +ds version suffix.

I did not know this was a valid reason for rejecting a package. Developers reference says 'should' and not 'must'.

https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/developers-reference/best-pkging-practices.html#bpp-origtargz

I can't see it in https://ftp-master.debian.org/REJECT-FAQ.html or in policy as well.

May be I'm missing something here? I have at least seen some packages in archive which did not advertise repackaged source in version (don't remember the names now). Does it mean they are RC bugs?

This review may not be exhaustive.  Please check your source package
against your d/copyright and the ftpmaster REJECT-FAQ, throughly,
before uploading to NEW again.

Thank you for your time and contribution!
