Well, apart from firmly grasping the wrong end of the stick,
Petr was actually right:

 Package: ssh-askpass
 Version: 1.2.27-1
 Section: non-US/non-free
 Priority: optional
 Architecture: i386
 Depends: ssh, libc6 (>= 2.1), xlib6g (>= 3.3.3.1-1)
 Installed-Size: 19
 Maintainer: Philip Hands <phil@hands.com>

I got rid of the version a few days ago.

The version mismatch got introduced by an inventive NMU, which was
pretty impressive given that the rules file used to determine the
version automatically ;-)

Cheers, Phil.
