Yes, not once, but several times. But because this is the first time that 
I'm using lintian, understanding the lintian description tags doesn't 
mean knowing how to fix them.

No I don't want to do a NMU. There hasn't been a Debian package for it 
before. The problem is, the upstream version is 0.9.5, so normally I 
should use 0.9.5-1 as the latest version. However, the upstream chose to 
put 0.9.5-1 in the changelog file, that's why I chose 0.9.5-1.1. In this 
case, I should use 0.9.5-2 instead? 

Thanks
