Package: dh-make
Version: 0.46
Severity: normal
Attempting to use dh_make on the CLC-INTERCAL base release I find:
| CLC-INTERCAL-Base-1.-94.-2$ dh_make
| Package name "CLC-INTERCAL-Base-1.-94." is not in a valid format.
| Debian policy manual states:
| "Package names must only consist of lower case letters, digits (0-9),
| plus (+) or minus (-) signs, and periods (.)"
It appears that dh_make has become confused by the negative components
in the version number. Worse, there is no visible way to override the
misparsing.

It's not that, read the error message again:
"... only consist of **LOWER CASE LETTERS**,..."
