I was directed to this bug from #debian-mentors.

E: orig-tarball-missing-upstream-signature is triggered when upstream
signs their uncompressed tarball instead of tarball.{gz,bz2,xz}.  For
such cases the watch file must be told to decompress, and
pgpsigurlmangle=s/\.tar.*$/\.tar.sign/.  This used to work flawlessly.

For the record, is it now necessary to repack the orig.tar for cases
like these?

Cheers,
Nicholas
