building Mir with crossbuilder fails #36

When trying to build Mir with crossbuilder it fails with:

COMMON_CONFIGURE_OPTIONS: -DCMAKE_INSTALL_LIBEXECDIR="lib/arm-linux-gnueabihf/mir" -DMIR_ENABLE_WLCS_TESTS=OFF  -DMIR_LINK_TIME_OPTIMIZATION=ON

This happens because the debian/rules files behaves differently depending on the version of target distribution; in particular, there are some workarounds applied to the xenial builds. However, when crossbuilder builds the package, it creates a new changelog entry with dch -v, which sets the distribution name to UNRELEASED. This, in turn is what causes the build to fail. I'm moving this bug to crossbuilder.
