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.

Yes, this would need manual intervention for any change of the modules (either we can get rid of one or upstream adds another one). Single tarballs also would not really solve the problem I was asking for. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de

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.
