Why is this in the .inc file at all?  It seems a bit bogus to have a PR
value defined here that needs to be rewound whenever PV is changed
somewhere else.

Conversely, why is this stuff in the .bb file rather than in the .inc?
Presumably all the lines above are version invariant.

Also (although this isn't really a comment on your patch), why does
u-a-dpkg RDEPEND on dpkg in the first place?  That seems like it rather
defeats the whole point of having this as a separate recipe.
