I just came across a similar problem 2 hours ago:

/path/to/amcl/ contains:
The old source packages for amcl and the source dir, after a 
$ dpkg-source -x amcl_0.4.2-2.dsc

amcl-0.4.2            amcl_0.4.2-2.dsc
amcl_0.4.2-2.diff.gz  amcl_0.4.2.orig.tar.gz

Also, it contains the new upstream source, tarred and unpacked:
amcl-0.7.0            amcl-0.7.0.tar.gz

With this files, I do a dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot from amcl-0.7.0/, which
builds an amcl_0.7.0-1.tar.gz and ends with a: 
dpkg-buildpackage: Debian-specific package; upload is full source

I don't know what's going on with this. My other packages create an
amcl_0.7.0.orig.tar.gz when I build them. The rules in amcl is nearly
identical to those other packages.

What am I missing?

Also, I get this lintian error, which I think is a bug:
E: amcl: manpage-for-x11-binary-in-wrong-directory usr/X11R6/bin/amcl
usr/share/man/man1/amcl.1x.gz
The policy states that _any_ manual goes into share, no /usr/X11R6/man. Am I
right?

Thanks

Jordi
