Hey,

The latest Ubuntu (focal) package has version 2:3.5.99.23-1build1. The
first few lines in debian/changelog are:

nx-libs (2:3.5.99.23-1build1) focal; urgency=medium

  * No-change rebuild for libgcc-s1 package name change.

nx-libs (2:3.5.99.23-1) unstable; urgency=medium

  * New upstream release.
  * debian/control:
    + Bump Standards-Version: to 4.5.0. No changes needed.
  * debian/nxagent.install:
    + Drop nxagent.xpm from pixmaps/ folder. Not shipped upstream anymore.
  * debian/rules:
    + Some extra quotes. Reduce delta between upstream DEB packaging and
      official Debian package.
  * debian/copyright:
    + Update copyright attributions.

But debian/changelog in arctica/nx-libs (in the branch that was used for
the release contains:

nx-libs (2:3.5.99.23-0) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Upstream-provided Debian package for nx-libs.
    See upstream ChangeLog for recent changes.

nx-libs (2:3.5.99.22-0) unstable; urgency=medium

  * Upstream-provided Debian package for nx-libs.
    See upstream ChangeLog for recent changes.

This is confusing. 2:3.5.99.23-0 is the latest from arctica, but
Ubuntu focal already has 2:3.5.99.23-1.

Mike, what's going on?
