Since backports.org is (pseudo?)official, and it's very unlikely to see a ~bpo.\d+ version on a package not coming from backports.org, can't we just hardcode that any ~bpo.\d+ version is stripped off automatically before the compare? Vincent's last patch can be useful but I would propose to add ~bpo.\d+ by default to the list of strippable regexps... Thijs
