Totally my fault, I'll upload a new one properly built.

Can you please elaborate a bit more on this?
I had explained the weird versioning in a previous mail with the full 
rationale [0], is this comment of yours also taking that into account?
(In brief, the +really is to avoid screwing up the DB upgrade in Jessie)

By "newstable" you mean "jessie"?
If so, the full upgrades chain would be:
"2.4.31-1+nmu2" -> "2.4.31+really2.4.40-3~bpo70+1" -> "2.4.40-3"
While this is ugly as hell, it seems fine to me wrt. upgrading, but I am 
probably missing some details of your comment. 
If you have some spare moments, can you please explain this lengthier?
