OK. I've uploaded debpool to mentors again. dget http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/d/debpool/debpool_0.3.5.dsc
Seems the compression issues I was having before was not the fault of debpool, since I'm not having those issues now, and I haven't changed anything with debpool. I have addressed the issues with the packaging however.
