If I understand correctly, that configure value determines whether the
.orig.tar.gz tarball will be included in the source package, *if* a
source package is built.

If so, I think this variable is badly named, as it suggests it means
adding -s to sbuild's command-line no matter what.  Maybe rename it to
$main::force_orig_source as well?

This is only cosmetic if users don't get in contact with it, but as far
as I can tell, you could add this to you ~/.sbuildrc in order to make
sure -sa is passed to dpkg-source always?  In that case, we should make
it a bit clearer perhaps.


cheers,

Michael
