But unfortunately, it's not enough.

I've sent a patch upstream¹ that, if it's accepted, should fix this
issue by allowing you to add:

      export OS_VERSION_OVERRIDE=$(VERSION)

in debian/rules to set the version to whatever you like.

Unfortunately, since this patch is needed at clean time, I am not sure
that you can easily use it in debian/patches.

I'll keep you in touch.
