I wonder if the same can be done in Perl? Maybe I should > write a very crude tarball parser that is able to do just enough parsing... as you may be able to see from the history of https://salsa.debian.org/debian/sbuild/-/merge_requests/112 I was *thiiiiis* close to just apply your patch and call it a day. But then I got so annoyed that instead I wrote a tarball parser in Perl. Whoops. :) This should be fixed with the next upload. Thanks! cheers, josch
