Hi Scott,

I expect 100 % in the binary packages.

On the other hand, the "upstream" tarballs are becoming temporary cruft that
are not the preferred form for modification because they do not contain the
typical revision information and comments found in version control systems used
upstream.  This was not the case when Debian was founded, but as the world
evolves, we need to evolve.

Have a nice day,

Charles
