Bug Description
When uploading a PPA package with a .orig.tar.bz2:
Rejected:
Unable to identify file openc2e_
Further error processing not possible because of a critical previous error.
This message is rather unclear, but moreover since dpkg supports .orig.tar.bz2, it would be nice to have support in the build infastructure for this as well. Although it's trivial to repack the archive, it's good for the uploaded .orig tarball to be exactly identical to the upstream tarball, for verification purposes.

(note; reuploading the package with the tarball recompressed as .orig.tar.gz worked without any other changes; it's not a problem with contrib/ or anything AFAICS)
