When binNMUing a package with dpkg 1.16.5, the debs end up with a
missing version in the Source field of their control file.

This seems to work:

/usr/bin/dpkg-gencontrol 2012-06-30 21:51:22.000000000 +0200
+++ ../dpkg-gencontrol 2012-07-02 19:24:18.000000000 +0200

}
}

-my $verdiff = $binaryversion ne $sourceversion;
+my $verdiff = $substvars->{'vars'}{'binary:Version'} ne $substvars->{'vars'}{'source:Version'};
if ($oppackage ne $sourcepackage || $verdiff) {
$fields->{'Source'} = $sourcepackage;
- $fields->{'Source'} .= " (" . $sourceversion . ")" if $verdiff;
+ $fields->{'Source'} .= " (" . $substvars->{'vars'}{'source:Version'} . ")" if $verdiff;
}

if (!defined($substvars->get('Installed-Size'))) {

Cheers,
