Package: ftp.debian.org, dpkg
Severity: important

Hi,

In the past, dpkg-source -x would refuse to unpack a source package with
format 1.0 referencing such a file.

As a result, dak would reject such uploads that couldn't be unpacked
(https://anonscm.debian.org/git/mirror/dak.git/commit/?id=fe8fc1bfe57b90)

As of dpkg 1.19.0, dpkg-source -b now includes upstream tar signatures
when building source packages with format 1.0, thus creating source
packages that get rejected on upload.

That seems like a bad situation to be in.  Can we please revert either
the recent dpkg-source -b change or the older dak change?

Thanks,
Julien
