Make new release entry to debian/changelog (e.g., as I do it ;), by
prefixing '0.slink.'  to the debian revision; for example "1.2-2"
becomes 1.2-0.slink.2"). Not doing these means the package might not
be updated when you later upgrade to potato (beside from the general
mixup having two different, but equally versioned binary packages).
