Package: src:diffoscope Version: 122 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
When recompiling all packages that use OCaml with OCaml 4.08.0, diffoscope failed with: > debian/rules:16: *** Version in debian/changelog does not match diffoscope > version. Stop. This is because my scripts generate a new changelog entry documenting the recompilation, with a suffixed version, but otherwise does not change the source package. I believe this kind of changes-only-in-debian/changelog should be supported by all Debian packages. Maybe you could relax the version check so that the version in diffoscope/__init__.py is only a prefix of the version in debian/changelog?
