Just a few quick remarks:

Parsing the Changelog for the version info seems super fragile for what are really the "production builds" from tarballs. It'd seem safer to put the version into a special purpose file that's shipped in the tarball.

Having a tilde in the filename makes me a bit uneasy, BUT, we produce packages with such filenames and they're out there for years . So that's probably just me still living in a cave mentally :smile:
