Bug#837173: uscan: symlink upstream signature

[Reiner Herrmann]

Source: devscripts
Version: 2.16.7
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

when uscan downloads/verifies the signature of an upstream tarball, it
is saved as $tarball.pgp. It then calls mk-origtargz to symlink the
tarball to a proper .orig tarball.
It would be nice, if it symlinked also the signature file to
$origtar.asc, because this is where dpkg-source is looking for upstream
signatures to be included in the source package.
At the moment I have to remember to manually copy/symlink the signature
after importing/verifying an upstream tarball.

Kind regards,
  Reiner
