Hi,

You appear to have already deleted the packages.

By design, it is never possible to re-use a filename with different content within a Launchpad package repository.

I see. So there's no way to get rid of them once uploaded?

The problem is that the origs generated by the build based on Debian git version contain some extra files compared to proper upstream release tarballs.

Should I just create a new PPA then?

Can you help with this problem?
