OK. I understand this, but.... Then all of the generated packages
share the same version.

	foo-lib_1.5.3_i386.deb and bar_1.5.3_i386.deb

instead of

	for-lib_1.5.3_i386.deb and bar_1.0.1_i386.deb

Or is there an override for this? dpkg-gencontrol barfed when I
tried to put in a Version: for each package, per 4.2.2 of the
Debian Packaging Manual.

Cheers!
