Lintian tag: debian-watch-mangles-debian-version-improperly

Type: information

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The version of this package contains dfsg, ds, or debian, but a misleading
upstream version mangling occurs in the debian/watch file. Since the dfsg
string is not part of the upstream version and its addition is
Debian-specific, the debian/watch file should use the dversionmangle
option to remove, instead of adding in uversionmangle, the dfsg before
comparing version numbers.

Please refer to https://wiki.debian.org/DEHS for details.
