Umm, why is that, if I may ask? I have Debian native packages
too, and this is what they look like:
======================================================================
__> l /usr/local/src/Packages/kernel-package/
total 368
4 ./ 168 kernel-package_7.34.tar.gz
4 ../ 176 kernel-package_7.34_all.deb
4 kernel-package-7.34/ 4 kernel-package_7.34_i386.changes
4 kernel-package_7.34.dsc 4 kernel-package_7.34_i386.upload
======================================================================
Why is there ever a need to have kernel-package_7.34-1.tar.gz?
