Has there been any thought to add a tarball detection to the script to
prevent accidental source uploading? While many tarballs are larger than
1MB and will get flagged by your side limit, not all are, and for those
who keep the actual source in the slackbuild's directory may
accidentally upload that to SBo.

I've been thinking about that, primarily for the purpose of ensuring correct MD5 sums in the info file. Then, if I had the tarball name, it would be easy to skip adding it to the submission archive. Unfortunately, determining the source code tarball name does not look like an obvious task. Still, I might try to do it one day.

Anyways, I know it's not the solution you asked for, but sbosubmit list the submission archive contents before the actual submission happens. So you can visually inspect the submission archive for the presence of any unwanted files. I used to do it before I created sbosubmit, that is I was looking inside the tarred SlackBuild directory, to see if there aren't any problematic files.
