# `debian-revision-is-zero`

The Debian version part (the part after the -) should start with one, not with zero. This is to ensure that a correctly-done Maintainer Upload will always have a higher version number than a Non-Maintainer upload: a NMU could have been prepared which introduces this upstream version with Debian-revision -0.1

Severity: | `error`
Experimental: | `false`
Renamed from: | `debian-revision-should-not-be-zero`
