As reports of broken sid systems rose up, Andreas Barth NMUed
your package yesterday in a 0-day NMU policy. He setup an epoch
to the package version which IMHO is a bad thing now that we
have the possibility of ~ in version strings. He could have used
2.4.35~is.2.4.32-0.1 instead of the ugly 1:2.4.32-1.1, because from
now on, you are stuck with an epoch in your package versions.
