Hi Ernad,

Yes, first you have to construct your source with `debuild -S -sa` to
include the orig.tar.gz in the set of files uploaded to LP.

Then you will probably need to upload and rebuild some OO build
dependencies in your PPA context, but I will only be able to know
precisely what is missing after the first PPA build.
