I would like to see it sponsored by the maintainer, but here something I'm worried
about:
what is the reason for the repack? non-dfsg files?
if it is just to skip some tests, I really prefer a debian/clean target, and not a repack
of the whole source tarball.
diverging from upstream tarballs has a lot of useless complications that should be avoided
whenever possible

as a general rule I like repacks when:
1) non-dfsg files might be left out
2) heavy and useless files are kept in the tarball (e.g. binaries, windows files, or prebuilt stuff)

in the other cases, I never found a good reason for a repack.

Other people might disagree, just I found none documentation about the reasons for this repack.

thanks,

G.
