... you know, it just goes to show how bad of a name ${Source-Version} is
that I completely forgot that it's *equivalent* to ${binary:Version}. So
since this dependency is between two arch: any packages, the package is
already perfectly binNMU-safe; so I've scheduled binNMUs for linux-ntfs, and
there's no need for any source uploads to t-p-u (though it would be nice to
have the package using the saner variable name in unstable).
