As soon I specify Files-Excluded: field, I receive following error: tar: Skipping to next header tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors mk-origtargz: error: tar --list --auto-compress --file ../gitit_0.10.6.3.orig.tar.gz gave error exit status 2 uscan: error: mk-origtargz --package gitit --version 0.10.6.3 --compression gzip --directory .. --copyright-file debian/copyright ../gitit-0.10.6.3.tar.gz gave error exit status 2 Did you ever encountered this? I failed to find example package, that uses this uscan feature. -- Best regards, Dmitry Bogatov <KAction@gnu.org>, Free Software supporter, esperantisto and netiquette guardian. GPG: 54B7F00D
