Re: [Launchpad-users] question on PPA builds

It's the expected behavior. You cannot change the .orig.tar.gz without
changing the upstream version number.

But it doesn't list the .orig.tar.gz within the list of upload
packages. Also, when you create the .dsc/.diff.gz files, debuild
mentions that the source isn't being included (as that's the default
when the revision number is "-1"/"-0ubuntu1"; you can force it's
inclusion with the option "-S", but Launchpad would in this case
reject such an upload as two revisions with the same upstream versions
can't have different source tarballs).

No, but being a PPA you can delete the package and then upload it
again (this time using the "-S" option with debuild to include the new
source, if you don't want to reset the revision number).

Hope this helps,
