Package: libgtksourceview-dev
Version: 1.2.0-1
Severity: minor

APT announces:

   libgtksourceview-dev/unstable uptodate 1.2.0-1

and according to 

   http://packages.debian.org/unstable/libdevel/libgtksourceview-dev

the upstream source of the this package is
<http://gtksourceview.sourceforge.net/>. I'm confused, because at
the upstream page <http://gtksourceview.sourceforge.net/downloads.html>
it reads:

    Latest stable release of GtkSourceView is 0.8 and can be dowloaded
    from here ...

Shouldn't the Debian packaging name reflect the upstream version
numbering? Now it is 1.2.0 and that does not relate to the
upstream. According to policy:

    http://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html    
    5.6.11 Version

    The version number of a package. The format is:
    [epoch:]upstream_version[-debian_revision]

So, this bug report: "is there possibly inconsistent version
scheme used in the package name"?

There is nothing wrong with the versioning of GtkSourceView. The URL is
just pointing to a stale homepage. The sources are now hosted on
gnome.org:

http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/gtksourceview

I'll consider removing the URL from the package description if the
homepage isn't updated by the next upstream release.

If in doubt next time, please check the provided Changelogs =3D )

Cheers,
