Ok. So, if I install Sean's package now, and later it becomes available in the standard archives, what happens? Lets say that both packages have the same version and name (no gdm2 to deal with), and Sean's sources.list entry is listed before the official mirror site. When the new package enters sid, nothing happens, right (until the version gets incremented, of course)?

Where does this detailed package information come from? The packages.qa information page isn't nearly so detailed as some of the information you folks have discussed in the past. Thanks, Jonathan
