That's what I mean. Yes, the version in stable says this. No, it's not a problem. It just means that it's not an exact copy of an upstream release; the annotation to the version information helps to reduce confusion in case a bug shows up in the Debian package but not in upstream and somebody reports the bug to the wrong place.
