I did not extensively test it. I'm not fluent in sed yet so I used something I knew and understood.
I just wanted to point out those two apps did not support epoch and that the
patches I've sent fixed my itch of the moment. It really did. My use case
was: "Version: 1:10.b.9-4".
Here is a more solid one liner which doesn't break on longer epoch and absent
debian version.
perl -e 'while (<>) {/Version: ([0-9]+:)*([0-9a-zA-Z\.]*)(-.*)*$/ &&
printf "$2" . "\n";}'
but, perl or sed, whatever works you know :)
