[Pkg-giraffe-discuss] debian/watch and debain version mangling

[Carsten Schoenert]

Hi,

while working on kopano-webapp again I imported the version 3.3.1 again
using now a suffix '+dfsg1' where "1" would be incremented in case we
have to re-import some modificated same source.

I've added a addition (dversionmangle) to debian/watch based on the
article about watch from the Debian Wiki [1].

But Lintian is not happy about this and also a local uscan call gives a
hint about missing delimiters. So obviously there is something still wrong.

Someone with more Perl experience can give some light in here?
