Package: debhelper
Severity: normal

When you have a .tar.bz2 source from upstream instead of a .tar.gz and you
run dh_make on it, you get a corrupt .orig.tar.gz file. It seems it just
renames it to .tar.gz without changing format, and thus it doesn't work.

You have to make bunzip2 and then gzip the tar file before running dh_make
to make it work properly. Perhaps that could be automatically done by
debhelper.
