Different upstream tar.gz
I'm looking at fixing #517904[1], that the language packages for tesseract are blobs without source. To do this, I will have to give a new upstream tar.gz, containing the source, and not the blob. How do I do this? Should I make up a new upstream version number? Is there a standard solution for this?

RFS: lives
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Dear mentors, I am looking for a sponsor for the package "lives" which I updated and removed lintian warnings and errors. This is not a non-maintainer upload as the upstream author Gabriel Finch has agreed to list me as an 'uploader' in debian/control. The original maintainer was Gürkan Sengün . I think the original maintainer Gürkan Sengün is a Debian Developer as although I can't find him using db.debian.org, a random one of his packages I chose ttf-jura has been uploaded to the repository, but I can't find an RFS for it, only an ITP. Gürkan, if you want to upload lives that's great, but if not don't worry. The package requires libweed0, which is available from debian-multimedia.org (http://www.debian-multimedia.org/pool/main/l/lives/). However, only binary packages exist. Does this need to be uploaded before lives can (a source package would have to be made)? Also, would a postinst script that downloaded and installed libweed0 be acceptable?
