The files in the two archives are the same according to a recursive md5sum, only the parent directories are called differently (we use 3-... as an upstream version, which we change to 3+... when importing into the Debian git repository to comply with [1]) and some file status information differs (maybe/probably for the same reason). > The upstream ChangeLog says "(The ChangeLog will be generated by > release scripts from svn logs)" -- looks like packaging a VCS > snapshot.
