ideally indicating the backport target distribution. The resulting package
version will follow this schema:
- <originalversion>~<suffix>+<digit>
+ <originalversion><prefix><suffix>+<digit>
+
+ e.g.: 1.2.3-4~bpo60+1 with default <prefix>=~
- e.g.: 1.2.3-4~bpo50+1
+-p <string>, --version-prefix <string>
+ Version prefix that will be prepended to the backport version. By default it
+ is ~ but want to be changed (e.g. to +) for forward-porting to next releases.
