We don't fix all bugs in stable releases, only highly important ones.

No, the "-nl" part already ensures that the comparison will be false if the version is empty, so the problem must be something else. And since the entire code disappeared in intrepid, it's irrelevant for any release later than hardy, and also it does not affect everyone, but looks like a corner case. If we get to the root cause of the problem, then we can do something about it, but above change is a no-op, I'm afraid.
