A not uploaded state has the target distribution "UNRELEASED". Once it is uploaded this is set to "unstable" and the commit log says something like: "Uploaded to unstable (or new)" I think that's pretty obvious vor everybody even without a tag. > Also, version > numbers are cheap, no need to hold them back ;). Its not about holding back version numbers. As far as I know ftpmaster is not really happy about Debian revisions different from "-1". Besides this extra options are needed when building to add upstream tarball. As far as I know this is good packaging practice - at least all team members I know are doing it this way. Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
