So, the kernel is a native package in ThinPro, in contrast to
Debian and Ubuntu, where the kernel is a non-native package.
I think it is a little odd, but if you want to use a version number
without a hyphen, we can support this only for bindeb-pkg.
Please keep in mind that you still cannot do
"make deb-pkg" or "make srcdeb-pkg" in your way.
In Debian Policy [1], the version format is:
[epoch:]upstream_version[-debian_revision]
[1]: https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-controlfields.html#version
Here, the absence of the debian_revision indicates that the package is
a native package.
Because Kbuild uses the debian format 3.0 (quilt),
the debian_revision portion must be appended with a hyphen
when you generate a source package.

So, you are doing math.
You write a smaller number into .version by one
("68" into the .version file and set "+hp69" to the variable)
as the number in the .version file is incremented
during the kernel build.
Tricky, but seems to work.

dpkg-parsechangelog is invoked multiple times,
even for 'debian/rules clean'.
I would write the code like this:
revision = $(shell dpkg-parsechangelog -S Version | sed -n 's/.*-//p')
CROSS_COMPILE ?= $(filter-out $(DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE)-, $(DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE)-)
make-opts = ARCH=$(ARCH) KERNELRELEASE=$(KERNELRELEASE) $(addprefix
KBUILD_BUILD_VERSION=,$(revision)) $(addprefix
CROSS_COMPILE=,$(CROSS_COMPILE))
WIth this, dpkg-parsechangelog is invoked just one time
only when building the package.
