Switching to dbs, upload repacked orig.tar.gz?

[Andreas Metzler <ametzler@logic.univie.ac.at>]

Hello!
I'd like to use dbs for a package (newsx), the problem is that afaik
this requires to change the orig.tar.gz (from real original tar-ball
to one containing package-version/original_tarball), is there a clean
way (or commonly used trick) to upload it (except waiting for a new
upstream release)?

I thought I'd introduce an artificilial new upstream-version
(1.4pl6.0), are there better alternatives?
