Description

Here I got it wrong:
https://github.com/matteosecli/latexml-packaging/blob/462fb262fcddb82b81e0e2f9149a6310fe7a90c5/debian/changelog#L1
it should have been 0.8.3-1.

So, for the next release:

  • Fix the version in the changelog.
  • Always use a scheme upstream_version-debian_revison for the debian_version.
  • Update the corresponding recipes in the PPAs. The daily one should be ok as it is, but the stable one should use a versioning 0.8.4-debrevision+masterrevision.
