Dear Maintainer,

In Ubuntu we don't do binNMUs, we build sourceful changes with buildX
appended to the version number. This breaks with the current code in
d/rules which passes the whole version number to scons.

The attached patch is not very clean but it does fix the build for me:

  * d/rules: strip off ubuntuX, buildX from package version before feeding it
    to scons as VERSION.

Thanks for considering it!

Cheers,
mwh
