  Whatever you chose to do, a way to allow all vulnerable package to
build is needed (e. g. for bulk builds).

   The format of the version number is MAJOR.MINOR.  If it is still
compatible with the old audit-packages script, the minor version
should be bumped (1.1), if it is not, the major should be bumped
(2.0).  Please don't introduce a micro version number part.
