Dear Adam, I have thought about the upstream changes and looked at the diff again. There are only corrections, no new functionality added. The package in 1.1.20 Wheezy had no negative feedback, and I tested it myself multiple times. Would it be possible to simply take 1.1.20 from Wheezy and include it in the next update of Squeeze ? That would make everything simpler. It is architecture independant. It was built against Sid on February 27th; you can find its build logs here: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=debian-med/perlprimer.git;a=blob;f=amd64.log;hb=e7738a5c5e67f172bcd77038a08c43c2ffe1633c Rebuilding it on Squeeze would bring practially no change, as I tested: debdiff /var/cache/apt/archives/perlprimer_1.1.20-1_all.deb perlprimer_1.1.20-1_all.deb File lists identical (after any substitutions) Control files: lines which differ (wdiff format) ------------------------------------------------ Installed-Size: [-548-] {+540+} Backporting the API correction from 1.1.20 to 1.1.19 would be very similar to “forward-port” the calculation error in melting temperature from 1.1.19 to 1.1.20 : 1.1.19: my $corrected_tm=(($deltaH * 1000) / ($deltaS + (1.987 * log($oligo_conc_mols)))) - 273.15; 1.1.20: my $corrected_tm=(($deltaH * 1000) / ($deltaS + (1.987 * log($oligo_conc_mols/4)))) - 273.15; Since we know that the equation in 1.1.19 is wrong, using 1.1.20 for a Stable update would be – from the biologist point of view – quite appropriate.
