Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.24
% cd $(mktemp -d)
% mkdir debian
% EDITOR=true dch --create
% sed -i 's/VERSION/1.1/' debian/changelog
% dch --nmu
dch then loads my editor with the first line of the file being:
PACKAGE (1.1+nmu1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
However, the Developers Reference (section "5.11.2 NMU version numbering")
claims:
"If there is no debian-revision component in the version number then one
should be created, starting at `0.1'"
which would imply:
PACKAGE (1.1-0.1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
(I am unsure to whether developers-reference disparities constitute a bug
in devscripts. If this is not the case, please feel free to re-assign or
close.)

This was an intentional change after some discussion on the debian-devel
list[0]. There is currently an open bug[1] against the dev-ref for
updating the wording/examples for NMUs of native packages but no action
has been taken on it. Closing the bug.
