Oh, now I got you. I thought you meant `coreutils_8.30-3.debian.tar.xz ` differs w.r.t. the one at the package repository.
No, I didn't extract the orig tarball it at all. At first I didn't even have it on disk, but then `dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc` failed with
```
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/manuel/vps/testground_debpackage/debian-coreutils'
dh_clean
dpkg-source -b .
dpkg-source: error: can't build with source format '3.0 (quilt)': no upstream tarball found at ../coreutils_8.30.orig.tar.{bz2,gz,lzma,xz}
dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -b . subprocess returned exit status 255
```
, so that's why I put `../coreutils_8.30.orig.tar.{bz2,gz,lzma,xz}`into existance by copying the orig tarball there.
```
manuel@manuel-hp:~/vps/testground_debpackage$ md5sum coreutils_8.30.orig.tar.xz
ab06d68949758971fe744db66b572816 coreutils_8.30.orig.tar.xz
```
Do I need to extract it? https://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/maint-guide/build.en.html doesn't mention anything like that. Also, it doesn't seem to change the outcome.
Thanks for your assistance!
Regards, Manuel
