Both. Rapidshare has a -- weird download system with timeouts, bandwidth and time limitations etc. which makes impossible for uscan to detect new package versions. A good package should be able to check for new upstream versions. And I'm pretty sure that debuild can't work with split archives. The new version of the packaging specs make it possible to build from more than one source package, but not from split source packages. (If I'm wrong, please correct me) I'll try to build a package from the given source tomorrow.
