I should add that of course the orig.tar.gz files are in the src
directory:

$ ls /home/frank/src/Packages/texlive/texlive/src
texlive-base_2005.orig.tar.gz  texlive-extra_2005.orig.tar.gz
texlive-doc_2005.orig.tar.gz   texlive-lang_2005.orig.tar.gz

That's the directory used in the Makefile:

perl tpm2deb.pl make-deb-source --oldsource=/home/frank/src/Packages/texlive/texlive/src/ --master=LocalTPM all \
		2>&1 | tee texlive.sourcebuild.log
