You may see, if you put the right number again in debian/changelog, that running "uscan --force" will download the tarballs and give them the right version number. Yet, I guess this should not remain as is but I unfortunately do not have the repacking skills to do more at that point. > > another minor thing is the "|-0ubuntu1|" suffix.
