That's how it is, at least with binary linux distros. You get the

Why, what is in this version that the Ubuntu version does not have?
(Note that the Debian way (and therefore the Ubuntu way) is that

incrementing upstream's version number (instead, an additional UBuntu
version number is tagged on at the end))
