Creating two packages from one source



Can a single rules files be used to make two binary packages from
one orig.tar.gz.

I want to make a package that will be upgradable, e.g.

 <package>_<version>-1_i386.deb

and another which would not be (it could live alongside other versions of
the same package):

 <package><version>_<version>-1_i386.deb

The alternative creates two orig.tar.gz, and that seems a waste.
(The package is not yet a Debian package, nor am I yet a Debian
developper).

Thanks,
