I understand the issue better now thanks to your example.

We wouldn't want to unconditionally generate >=1.0.0~.  It's useful that
a 1.0.0~git.. version number does not satisfy a standard >=1.0.0
dependency.  It's only when a pre-release is known to work fine that we
would want >=1.0.0~ in ${elpa:Depends}.

There are already snapshot, -git, .cvs etc. version numbers defined.
See `version-to-list'.  Maybe dh_elpa could append a tilde in the
presence of one of those.
