Hi!

With the new dpkg >= 1.23.0 release series, which contains several
deprecations that emit warnings and is more strict when parsing data,
the autopkgtests for this package are failing, making it also affect
dpkg's own migration.

I'd usually have provided a patch to fix this, but in this particular
case at least one of the failures is due to the push to confuse the
native source vs version concept, and changes to solve that make as
little sense to me as the introduction of the confusion, and I'd
rather not endorse this by providing a patch that I disagree with.
Sorry! :/

Thanks,
Guillem
