No special reason. The change will simplify the build by a bit. Do you
want the honors to do the changes in the svn ?

The exactly the way to work. I don't see a reason to keep both the
upstream files uncompressed in pkg/<package>/tags/upstream and in
compressed form in pkg/<package>/tarballs/ .

So Please create the tarballs directory, and download the file from
http://mentors.debian.net/debian/pool/main/a/aspell-fa/aspell-fa_0.10+0.orig.tar.gz

I've added a debian/watch file to make it easier in the future.

Please notice that I'm also changing the version number (and thus the
orig.tar.gz filename) due to a fact I learned at #389644.
