We have a broken tutorial on the web site. Besides the bug report, I just came across a question about this on AskUbuntu. So let's just revert the version bump for now. -- https://code.launchpad.net/~andrewsomething/ubuntu-packaging-guide/lp1248353/+merge/197975 Your team Ubuntu Packaging Guide Team is requested to review the proposed merge of lp:~andrewsomething/ubuntu-packaging-guide/lp1248353 into lp:ubuntu-packaging-guide.
