+# Remark by Andreas Tille:  Changing the upstream version string from '-' to
+# '.' is not a good idea I'd strongly recommend to avoid this in future since
+# this is not the recommended way to do things.  After discussion with
+# Dirk Eddelbuettel several years ago I stopped this (since I did it before
+# as well) and used an epoch to create higher version numbers
