Also, this bit in debian/rules:

export V=`cat install.sh | grep "^VERSION=" | head -n 1 | cut -f 2 -d "="`
VMAJOR:=$(shell echo $(V) |cut -f 1 -d .)
VMINOR:=$(shell echo $(V) |cut -f 2 -d .)
VPATCH:=$(shell echo $(V) |cut -f 3 -d .)
NEXTPATCH:=$(shell expr $(VPATCH) + 1)

breaks when the version number ends in -RC1. And you win the "useless
use of cat" award.
