My understanding of pinning is that that can be used to specify which
version to use, which is what I use it for already, but not to force no
version to be used. Agreed that this is not a common use case, so low
prio and not patching it till it's fixed upstream makes sense, but since
it's something I don't have a good alternative for, I have locally just
built a modified dpkg to get this working properly.
