You mean that should I create one rule looking like the following?
get-orig-source:
 NAME=basename `pwd`
 mkdir $NAME.orig
 wget -N -P $(CURDIR)/$NAME.orig '$(FETCHADDRESS)*-*.xpi'
 rm -f $(CURDIR)/$NAME.orig/en-US.xpi
 tar -cvzf ../$NAME.orig.tar.gz $NAME.orig

What's the purpose of that? (I'm new in packaging).
This way, will the package be considered non-native?
Is this an advantage?

Thanks,
