You can work around this locally by rewriting your .changes files; the
changestool utility in the reprepro packages can help with that.  But
you won't be able to upload different files with the same name.  The
usual solution is adding a numeric part to the version after +dfsg, like
+dfsg1, and incrementing that on each change to the tarball.
