Comment (by Barry Wardell <barry.wardell@…>):

 I imagine Debian needs to be generic in the version strings they support
 because they have no control over the versions strings of most packages.
 In the case of Cactus, we can set more strict rules on what a version
 string is which would simplify things quite a lot. The most
 straightforward would be to enforce that an interface version number is
 just an integer or maybe a decimal number. Is there a reason to allow more
 complicated version strings?
