That probably means that you need to build the source package using
"debuild -S -sa" rather than the usual "debuild -S", to tell
dpkg-genchanges that it needs to include the .orig.tar.bz2 file in the
upload.

This is normally autodetected, but not if there's a previous changelog
entry starting with "1.59.0-", in which case the tools assume that the
(potentially large) .orig.tar.bz2 has already been uploaded to the
target archive and don't reupload it by default.
