Thanks for doing that!

I agree that putting version numbers in package descriptions adds very 
little value to said descriptions and it makes translators work a lot

Maybe we should try to issue bug reports more systematically when we 
encounter such descriptions, especially for the ones that evolve very 
often like linux-image-*?
