I am curious what Jakub is trying to achieve. Can we upload upstream package with zip and xpi, now? Are you trying such? > $ uscan --help | grep no-symlink > --no-symlink Don't call mk-origtargz > > The name is a relic from when the only option was setting up a properly > named symlink.

My first reaction was "Should we add yet-another-alias-option like --no-mk-origtargz" and expand manpage to explain: Don't call mk-origtargz. This turns off repackaging automatically. Are you using "uupdate" or "gbp-import-orig --uscan"? Then you may still wish to run mk-origtargz to get properly renamed filename but without automatic repackaging. You may also wish not to give extra option every time you update. ... There may be needs for such option and also support from opts= line.
