The upload from debomatic  is ok. I can download pictures from my camera a 
Canon Powersshot SX 110 IS.

My problem with the versions number is . Its a NMU Upload for the backports.
Is this 4.14.0-1.1~bpo8+1 or this correct 4.14.0-1~bpo8+1.1 ? 

dch -n --bpo isn't  working.   

The output from lintian.


N:    Check: nmu, Type: source
N: 
W: digikam source: source-nmu-has-incorrect-version-number 4:4.14.0-3~bpo8+1
N: 
N:    A source NMU should have a Debian revision of "-x.x" (or "+nmuX" for a
N:    native package). This is to prevent stealing version numbers from the
N:    maintainer.
N:    
N:    Maybe you didn't intend this upload to be a NMU, in that case, please
N:    double-check that the most recent entry in the changelog is
N:    byte-for-byte identical to the maintainer or one of the uploaders. If
N:    this is a local package (not intended for Debian), you can suppress this
N:    warning by putting "local" in the version number or "local package" on
N:    the first line of the changelog entry.
N:    
N:    Refer to Debian Developer's Reference section 5.11.2 (NMUs and
N:    debian/changelog) for details.
