Package: lintian Version: 2.5.50~bpo8+1 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
lintian produces what I believe is a false positive debian-watch-file-should-mangle-version with elogind. Devuan is the packaging upstream for elogind. To differentiate the Debian specific packages the packaging version number has +debianN appended, for example 241.3-1+debian1. I think lintian should differentiate between 'debian' in the upstream version (before the hyphen) and the packaging version (after the hyphen). In the latter case watch file mangling is not required. Thanks. Mark
