How to unpack upstream tarball in a dpatch-using package?



Be given a source package with the following layout:

foo/
foo/debian
foo/debian/rules
foo/debian/patches
foo/debian/patches/00list
foo/debian/patches/01bar
foo/upstream/package.tar.bz2

So I want the package build process to unpack
foo/upstream/packag.tar.bz2 before trying to apply the patches with
dpatch.

Is it better to do some makefile magic for this unpacking (as having
an unpack-stamp which patch depends on, or would one better have a
foo/debian/patches/00unpack dpatch snippet doing the unpacking?

Greetings
Marc
