STDERR versus STDOUT. the ERROR ERROR ERROR message goes to stderr, the
rest to stdout. I assume that this is the reason.

I don't see an obvious errr, but I would add some print to the
make_deb_source pakckage here:
    $oldorig = "$oldsrcdir/${package}_${version}.orig.tar.gz";
print "DEBUG DEBUG: oldorig=$oldorig\n";	#added
    if (-r $oldorig) {

Then you should see *why* the hell it doesn't find the orig.tar.gz.

Best wishes
