Personally I would suggest not using the tarballs containing autotools files for the Debian orig.tar and instead using tarballs that are identical to the upstream git repository. This ensures that on Debian you are always building the ./configure and other autotools files from source at `debian/rules build` time. Also review the upstream git repository to ensure it doesn't contain embedded copies of files maintained elsewhere (those should be packaged in Debian and added to build-deps instead), or other generated files (those should be removed and instead created at build time. The only potential exception to this are the copies of the licenses. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
