I think (haven't tested) that both can already be achieved. You don't need to use Debian package version numbers that really existed for your package in the scripts/data dirs. The version numbers are compared with dpkg --compare-versions, so you could extend the real version number with sorting numbers in the data/scripts directory to force the sorting as you wish. This could fix both your requirements. Does this idea work for you? If what I say is true this bug could be closed. Paul
