What fails? The dpkg-source command?

% wget -q http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/debian/xindy_2.2\~beta2-1.diff.gz \
    http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/debian/xindy_2.2\~beta2-1.dsc \
    http://www.minet.uni-jena.de/~joergs/debian/xindy_2.2\~beta2.orig.tar.gz
% dpkg-source -x xindy_2.2\~beta2-1.dsc
dpkg-source: extracting xindy in xindy-2.2~beta2
%

Does dget work?

Hey, this would be great, really great.

Ehm, what do you expect? I've a project[1] that uses Xindy, but I've never
created special test cases. But upstream ships some tests with the tar.gz
they are run at build time.

Schöne Grüße, Jörg.
