debian-revision-is-zero

The Debian version part (the part after the -) should start with one, not with zero. This is to ensure that a correctly-done Maintainer Upload will always have a higher version number than a Non-Maintainer upload: a NMU could have been prepared which introduces this upstream version with Debian-revision -0.1

For more information please consult:

NMUs and debian/changelog (Section 5.11.2) in the Debian Developer's Reference

The tag is present in Lintian version 2.114.163. That is the most recent version we know about.

We use semantic versions. The patch number is a commit step indicator relative to the 2.114.0 release tag in our Git repository.

You can find the detection logic for this version at commit f5107b6. For merge requests, please use the latest version in the Lintian check fields/version.
