+Comment: The orig tarball is repacked because upstream contains a deps/
+ directory which bundles heavy dependencies including libav and SDL2. On
+ Debian systems we always link against system libraries so we avoid these
+ bundled dependencies altogether and end up with an orig tarball which is
+ less than 1% of the size it would otherwise be.
