Public bug reported:

coreutils-from provides the `coreutils` metapackage. The version of this
is set using:

    GNU_COREUTILS_VERSION := 9.5-1ubuntu2

in the debian/rules. However this is mismatched with what is currently
provided by the archive (and thus the version that is *actually*
installed).

This is mostly a visual error, but if a bug is reported for coreutils
currently, the version will always seem to be 9.5-1ubuntu2 no matter
which version is actually running on the system.

** Affects: coreutils-from (Ubuntu)
     Importance: Undecided
