As I realized yesterday, the problem is meta packages that do not contain source code independently of the distribution, but the files are in tde-packaging. My current script's leaves this package as "native". Now I working to change it. Then I will be able to send my script as an example.

OK, I think I get the gist of it. I am pretty sure I can handle the source tarball creation, I just need to make sure the server has enough disk space!

I checked the packages that do not have the source code in tde, but in tde-packaging. I found only one minor differences and I'm smoothing it. So now also defaultsettings packages and metapackages may have "orig.tar.xz" common to all versions of the distributions.
Following this, I reworked in my script preparation for defaultsettings packages and metapackages. If you are interested, I can send my scripts (outside list).
I also smoothing few other differences that could be addressed identically for all versions of the distribution. Thanks to this the packaging files are now again same across versions of the distribution.
