Version mangling
================

Upstream has release tags like "RELEASE.2024-11-17T19-35-25Z", which don't parse into a nice
package version. Debian's packaging extracts the date components and strips out the hyphens to
produce a nicer version. The version is also prefixed with a "0.0~" just in case upstream
decides to switch from timestamps to a semantic versioning approach down the road so Debian's
packaging wouldn't need an epoch bump to deal with such a change.
