Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.53
Severity: wishlist

Hi!

Is it possible to make uupdate recognize a tilde in the package version,
please?
For example:

$ uupdate ../package_3.1\~beta.orig.tar.gz 
uupdate: new version number not recognized from given filename
Please run uupdate with the -v option

I know that I can use the "-v" option but would be good if it could understand
(if possible) that ~beta, ~rc, etc, are valid version numbers.

Thank you very much!

Best regards,
Nelson
