Bug#131252: apt: When built from source, apt always says there is a newer version.

[Vincent van Adrighem <vincent@dirck.mine.nu>]

Thank you for the insight. It is probably best for user-support to have 
this.

I've tried some bash/perl/sed/whatever scripting.
I'm attaching this horrible script to this email. It will probably only 
work with english locale, but it works for me.

Thanks,
Vincent

PS. Just for the record. This script is not a very good solution, but 
for everyone who wants something to download-build-install source 
debs...
