When I packaged firmware-microbit-microbit I wasn't aware of any tricks, so I resorted to overriding dh_auto_build to move the extracted components into their expected paths before building: https://salsa.debian.org/python-team/packages/firmware-microbit-micropython/-/blob/debian/master/debian/rules Not sure if this useful, but I thought I'd pass it along in case it helps.

Re: How to create multi-source tarball with different submodules for scipy
I haven’t looked closely at it myself, but qtwebengine-opensource-src accomplishes something along these lines using `get-orig-source` in their rules file. https://salsa.debian.org/qt-kde-team/qt/qtwebengine/-/blob/master/debian/rules[1] Note that, in their case, you must have the python3-debian package installed, because the script depends on Python for some of the processing.

Not that I know of; this is the design of the multi-source tarball setup: each component tarball is extracted into a directory with the name of the component. Best wishes, Julian
How to create multi-source tarball with different submodules for scipy
Hi, I tried to create a multi-source tarball for scipy in its experimental branch[1]. Upstream includes a set of git submodules in its build process. I intended to merge all these submodules in a single scipy_1.10.0.orig-submodules.tar.gz. This tarball is created with a script[2] which makes sure that the exact directory structure as it is used by upstream is conserved. This directory layout is needed in the build process. Unfortunately `dpkg-source -x` extracts the content of the submodules tarball into a subdirectory submodules/. Is there any trick to unpack this tarball right into the root? Otherwise I need to do some symlinks workaround in d/rules to provide all files where these are needed. Kind regards Andreas.
