[Buildd-tools-devel] Bug#368066: sbuild: version strings should be allowed to be "0"

[Santiago Vila]

Package: sbuild
Version: 0.45
Severity: minor
Tags: patch

The string "0" is valid as a string version for a Debian package.
Therefore, sbuild should not complain about it.

[ This was already reported as Bug #300205. Sorry for reporting it again
  but it seems the fix was not applied, or it was lost, or who knows ].
