But from the upstream homepage I see: Click here to download the current distribution of MUSTANG (v.3) (md5sum: 883bd27b7ce9681476008089e769aa50) Note: This distro contains some patches compared to the older distribution So it seems that the available tarball is new, already including the patch and with the same name. The old tarball is available at http://www.cs.mu.oz.au/~arun/mustang/mustang_v.3_old_14Jan06.tgz (from the link "older distribution"). Like I said before, you can use the old tarball and apply the patch with dpatch or you can use the new tarball (if I correctly understood that there is a new tarball) and increment the version with +p1. About the version numbers, you can use dpkg --compare-versions: $ dpkg --compare-versions 3.0+p1 gt 3.0 && echo greater greater (so 3.0+p1 > 3.0) $ dpkg --compare-versions 3.0.1 gt 3.0+p1 && echo greater greater So we have: 3.0.1 > 3.0+p1 > 3.0 There won't be problems if using 3.0+p1, for example. Agreed? :-) Best regards, Nelson -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
