Severity: serious

Dear Maintainer,

Although the upstream version number is valid, it is too long,
repetitive and doesn't convey any meaning to a user. I literarly have
no idea what it is supposed to mean.

Please use a shorter version number with a better semantic meaning,
irrespective of how it is packaged/versioned by upstream, as obviously
all components of this version strings are never incremented
individually.

Regards,

Dimitri.
