Debian packaging: please use proper package version to allow upgrades to the final release

[Nicolas Dandrimont <nicolas.dandrimont@…>]

Hi,

Right now, in the Debian packaging, the version number is 1.0.0rc1-1'. This is a problem as when the final version will be released, the version number should be 1.0.0-something'. However, in dpkg, 1.0.0' < 1.0.0rc1'.

To allievate the problem, the version number right now should be `1.0.0~rc1'. This will allow seamless upgrades to further RCs and to the final version.

Attached patch fixes the issue, unfortunately, by breaking upgrade for current installations of the rc1. Maybe another solution could be found.

This will be fixed in rc2.
