I've tried to dig into this versioning matter, and I'm not sure if I understand how this is going to work. For debian-edu-config we should add this: Conflicts: debian-edu-install (<0.617) What should we do with the debian-edu-install? Packages after 0.617 have no conflict. To rebuild 0.616 to add a conflict makes no sense to me. Have I misunderstood completely now?
