eheh, that's exactly one of the inconsistencies: the package I
downloaded from mentors doesn't have that line. :)

yes.

and this is one of the issue I referred to when I was talking about
keeping the debian stuff separated :)
So, now you are "forced" to actually do another upstream release just to
change the debian/changelog file.
Guess this is not a problem after all, but can be annoying/frustraiting.

Anyway, for me is also fine if you just branch this release out, for
example:
$ git checkout v1.3.1
$ dch -e                    # modify the changelog here
$ git commit -am "modify the changelog for the debian release"
            # here your HEAD is detached
$ git tag -s v1.3.1-1
$ debuild -S
$ git checkout master

but I don't really care about how you deal with the versioning of your
software or with your git repo (for example, I'd hate to do what I just
proposed you)

yes, it does.

Let's just push this to the archive :)
who knows, maybe next time the review will come sooner and this problem
of "my head moved on" won't be a problem at all ;)
