Distributions are named stable, unstable and frozen. Sections are named main, contrib, non-US and non-free. Subsections are admin, base etc. However, in the non-US case, the subsections aren't admin, base et al, but main, contrib and non-free. There aren't any subsubsections, like admin, base etc., but that is not important since there aren't that many non-US applications. So, for example, GnuPG package would have `Section: non-US/main` in its debian/control file, and ssh would have `Section: non-US/non-free`. -- enJoy -*/\*- http://jagor.srce.hr/~jrodin/
