Thanks for the helpful clarification. I've adapted d/watch to report
only even minor version numbers (which is a bit weak since it will not
report 10.10 but there is some time left until then. ;-))

Done in Git.

The generation is done by uscan via
uscan --verbose --force-download
and the import of pristine-tar is done via
gbp import-orig --pristine-tar --no-interactive /PATH/TO/condor_VERSION.orig.tar.xz
I know there is some gbp command which does everything in one rush but
since I always forget this one this is my workflow. ;-)

Thanks a lot for the additional background hint. I've adapted
Files-Excluded in d/copyright accordingly. It looks a bit nasty, but
well, it does what it is supposed to do. ;-)

Left msconfig/do_tests.pl where it is.

It might be that in some ancient compat level of debhelper this was
needed. So its no mistake in principle - just not a nice reading for
your fellow team members.

Do you see any chance to move them right into place?
Hope this helps
Andreas.
