Packaging htdig 1:3.1.6-11, I noticed that the generated files do
not include the epoch in their name:
htdig_3.1.6-11_ia64.changes
I know it does not matter, but it would be nice to have the epoch be
part of the filename, for consistency, and to allow better
interaction with tools like dpkg-parsechangelog.
Thanks for your consideration.

This is because a lot of tools, such as rcp/scp and even tar! treat
colons in filenames as special.
I don't think there's any particular reason to put the epoch in the
filename, we've managed without doing so. Doing it will cause problems.

Have you ever, ever felt like this?
Had strange things happen? Are you going round the twist?
