Hi,

"zope-quotafolder_0.1.1" is a known offender in the archives.
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2020/05/msg00031.html
  https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=779098
  https://lists.debian.org/debian-user/2020/10/msg00442.html

The other two package names did not show up in that context.

  https://lists.debian.org/debian-68k/2020/05/msg00040.html
points to
  http://archive.debian.org/debian-amd64/pool/main/z/zope-quotafolder
for the .deb. But there is also a .orig.tar.gz file:
  http://archive.debian.org/debian-amd64/pool/main/z/zope-quotafolder/zope-quotafolder_0.1.1.orig.tar.gz

Looks like rogue fixing of packaging errors after upload.


Have a nice day :)
