Does it need to be extracted? The problem with java source packages
are usually, that they are not a least conform with the format which
dpkg-source likes, so almost ever java package I've seen (including my
own...) has a 'uncompress-stamp' in debian/rules and justs puts the
upstream file somwhere and and build a orig.tar.gz by hand.
