  I would not recommend that you do that for the following
  reason : when the final release of gphoto will ge released,
  it will be versioned 2.0.
  However, dpkg considers that 2.0beta3 >> 2.0 so you will have
  to use an epoch to bypass this, i.e. versioning it like
  1:2.0.

  So, i'd advide that you use :
  gphoto2_1.99-beta3.orig.tar.gz

  and you won't get the epoch problem.
