As per the Debian policy manual,  version format is 
[epoch:]upstream_version[-debian_revision].
While downloading using apt-get source <source pkg>=<version>, I observed 
that epoch is needed
for downloading the source correctly. However the downloaded dsc file does 
not contain epoch. Hence
this stripping while checking for the presence of the corresponding dsc 
file.

Also, Debian policy manual[1] states that . + - ~ (full stop, plus, hyphen, 
tilde) are the valid values
for use in upstream-version part and + . ~ (plus, full stop, tilde) for 
debian-revision part.

So, this epoch stripping should be fine.
