I was not using the -sa option (include original source) just the -si
option with dpkg-buildpackage. I have now built it with the -sa
option and uploaded all the relevant files so hopefully we have a
better package and a smaller tarball. I can't check right now because
the is a slight lag on mentors. I can see that the old tarball was;

swedish_1.4.5.orig.tar.gz 12-Jun-2008 17:54  1.2M 

vs. the new;

swedish_1.4.5.orig.tar.gz 2008-07-31 23:17 130K

So I think we have a significant reduction. :)

Thanks for your help Sandro!
