This notably fixes problems when users' Real Name field contains apostrophes (Bug 519273). - Automatically set invalid service priorities to a default value of 50, instead of committing wrong data. This allows GUIs not to worry about this implementation detail if they don't mind. - Remove useless versioning for Debian platform.
