Bug Description
When writing a recipe to backport a package from the development release to a stable release, I'd like to be able to set the version number in the recipe to use the package version found in debian/changelog from one of the bzr branch.
Example:
In the development release, package foo has version 1.0-1. I'd like to create a recipe to build a backport of package foo for the stable release lucid which should have the following version: 1.0-1~lucid1.
I'd like to specify the version number in the recipe using a substitution variable so that I don't have to edit the recipe whenever there is a new version available in the development release:
deb-version {pkgversion}

So this is an alternative to {debupstream}?
