Thanks for you interest in my package. The difference comes from my practice
in packing icons:

If you take a look at the orig-src from upstream, you get the following
directory-tree:

orig-tarball:
`+ nuvola
 `-+ 128x128
   + 64x64
   + ...

I've unpacked the tarball an left out the nuvola-dir -- I just used it's
contence. In this case my orig-src looks like this:

orig.gz:
`+ kde-icons-nuvola-1.0
 `-+ 128x128
   + 64x64
   + ...

As you can see, I've not removed any files, just the nuvola dir itself.
   
I thought this is a common practice, since most upstream sources don't
include a parent dir which is compatible with debians naming-scheme.

Hmmm seems to be an issue with my host. It seems to be fixed now.


Kind regards
