+ Upstream ships their tarballs as .tar.bz2 files - which the Debian pool
 unfortunately doesn't like (yet). All I do with them is piping them
 through bzcat and gzip, like this for e.g. the 1.4.3 release:
-bzcat wesnoth-1.4.3.tar.bz2 | gzip --best -c > wesnoth_1.4.3.orig.tar.gz

+bzcat wesnoth-1.4.3.tar.bz2 | gzip > wesnoth-1.4_1.4.3.orig.tar.gz

+ PLEASE NOTICE that the branch version is part of the source package
+name now, that is, wesnoth-1.4 as package name derived from the upstream
+version 1.4.3.

+--------------------------------------------------------------------------
+
+ If one wants to switch and upgrade to a new branch (like, from
+1.X.something 1.Y.something) several things need to be done:
+
+-) Adjust source package name in debian/changelog.
+
+-) Call "sh debian/branchcheck" to generate the rest of the files
+automatically.
