I'd like improve for cases that upstream doesn't not make a release and the package that stay forever in a pre-release, this happens a lot with old projects that are half dead upstream, instead of have just one counter, we have two counter, one when upstream change other when we bump a release, will be better readable , for understanding if upstream source change or not . -- Sérgio M.
