[Pkg-mailman-hackers] Bug#363385: mailman: Explicit zero epoch
causes apt-get to endlessly treat as needing upgrade

Package: mailman
Version: 2.1.7-2.1.8rc1-1
Severity: important
The explicit zero epoch in this version of the Mailman package exposes a
bug in apt-get: the package is perpetually considered in need of
upgrade, and apt-get reinstalls it every time an upgrade or dist-upgrade
is done.
The current package should be repackaged without an explicit zero epoch
in its version number, as soon as possible.
Max.
