Bug#24622: dpkg-dev: dpkg-name should ignore epochs
Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.4.0.22
Severity: wishlist
The dpkg-name utility should ignore epochs in the names it gives
.deb files, eg it should rename `bison.deb' to `bison_1.25-12.deb',
not `bison_1:1.25-12.deb'. Here is a simple patch which does this:-
