Package: sbuild
Version: 0.34
Severity: minor
As "0" is a valid string version for a Debian package, sbuild should
treat version strings as strings, not as numbers, to avoid bogus
warnings like "no Version: field for package foo" on such packages.
The following patch is an attempt to remove one warning message, but
there may be other lines to change so that version strings are always
treated as strings.

Thanks.
