Upstream ships a debian/ folder, which means we need to repackage the tarball, which is a shame. I've seen they are making packages in their PPA, https://launchpad.net/~exaile-devel/+archive, but they are doing the package as a native package. If we can convince them to switch to a non-native package, their debian/ folder would be in the diff.gz (as ours is) and we could use directly their tarball without repackaging.

Could you try to convince them to do that for the next releases? You could mail their mailing list (http://groups.google.com/group/exaile-devel) or use the bug tracker (launchpad.net/exaile).
Also, could you forward them the manpage from debian/exaile.1?

Thanks!
