+Since the Release team also has access to wanna-build,
+it has become common practice to ask them to perform actions such as
+the recompilation of packages (binNMUs, see <xref linkend="binary-only-nmu"/>)
+or the retry of failed builds (give-backs).
+The format to use when requesting such actions is described at

+If the package is a not a native package, you should add a minor version number
+to the debian revision part of the version number (the portion after the last
+hyphen). This extra number must start at 1. For example,
+if the current version is <literal>1.5-2</literal>, then an NMU would get
+version <literal>1.5-2.1</literal>. If a new upstream version
is packaged in the NMU, the debian revision is set to <literal>0</literal>, for
-example <literal>1.6-0+nmu1</literal>.
+example <literal>1.6-0.1</literal>.

+NMUed), the NMU would get version <literal>1.5+nmu4</literal>. .

A special versioning scheme is needed to avoid disrupting the maintainer's
work, since using an integer for the Debian revision will potentially
