Bug#382826: Patch to use source version for binary-only NMU'd packages



Hi,

The attached patch makes apt-get strip the binary-only NMU suffix from
the binary package version to construct the source package version.

I've tested that it allows me to use "apt-get source" on packages that
have had binary-only NMUs.

I think we should rather fix the binNMU process. The "+b[0-9]*" thing is only a convention, after all, and there are others in use (e.g. when backporting).
