Bug#801253: O: wicd -- wired and wireless network manager



Hi

acually the updatepo is something that needs to be done and committed on git.
during in dh-clean ensures you will run it from time to time (at least to create
a source.changes to upload).

Doing in dh_build might not be enough, because most developers will build it in a
clean chroot, so they won't be able to commit the changes files.

it means somebody didn't push the tag :s
you can avoid this issue by launching "origtargz" command, that tries to recreate the orig
tarball with various different techniques
