Bug#1140236: devscripts: uscan creates wrong version if regex contains parentheses for grouping

[Christoph Martin]

Hi Agustin,

a very good hint. I didn't know about the ?: qualifier. But that did the 
trick in the cfengine3 case.

Thanks
Christoph

Seems that nested capturing groups are confusing uscan, I think it expects a
single capturing group with the version.

I am not an expert in advanced perl regex, but seems that making inner
groups non-capturing helps here,
