First, why a tar ball in a tar ball? The outer tar can compress it,
so just expose the contents. That also solves the problem of appearing
to have made a packaging mistake. And it would be better documentation
anyway if it is not a tar ball. Either that, or remove it completely.

if you rename it libgetdns, please do it before the package review goes
through. I thought of naming the package libgetdns, but I was not sure
if you were going to make little tools like ldns as well (although we
are likely renaming that package to ldns,ldns-utils)

I did like the example program names in ldns better. We could ship
those as useful tools :)
