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

Type: information

Description (from lintian-explain-tags)

The version of this package contains alpha, beta, or rc, but a misleading
Debian version mangling occurs in the debian/watch file. You should use
the uversionmangle option instead of dversionmangle so that the prerelease
is sorted by uscan before a possible future final release.

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