I don't understand what the somehost is for.
Why wouldn't dgit just generate the necessary source package files in
the usual way ?
That is, ISTM this bug report is really a request for dgit to be able
to push without there having been a previous build. It would do the
source package build itself.
Also, how do you propose handling the .orig.tar.gz ? Currently dgit
expects you to retain that in your `..' . Do you want that done
differently ?

Perhaps your --via is simply the build-host for rpush.
