Hmm, didn't think about that. Probably yes, but binNMUs would ahve to
change the version number.

Anyway, I am retitling/re-severiting the bug to tell devs in the 
description to use ${binary:Version} (I wouldn't have known that without
your remark).

Thanks

Best wishes

EXETER (n.)
All light household and electrical goods contain a number of vital
components plus at least one exeter. If you've just mended a fuse,
changed a bulb or fixed a blender, the exeter is the small, flat or
round plastic or bakelite piece left over which means you have to undo
everything and start all over again.
