At last I found this bug: http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=466550

There is a very long discussion about Debian policy §4.9. All what I asked in my previous emails seems to have already been asked and discussed there.
>From what I read there, seems that the get-orig-source should download latest source and not the current source (that is what I implemented). Should I change the behaviour
so that latest source is downloaded? If yes, is it ok if I put everything in an if block, so that if the latest version is the current one, than the source is munged,
otherwise it is not modified at all (it is very unlikely that upstream is still using 10 years old version of swig)?

Bests,
	Giulio.
