You may use 1.1p3 for unstable (even for experimental, if you tell Guy Maor about it). As far as I know, experimental does not need to be "upgradable" to unstable. It is better to not use epochs if there is not a real need. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: latin1 iQCVAgUBNOM87iqK7IlOjMLFAQGcFwP9HarTQ9AFMGkxxOxafJwj6yUhBA93Y/Zy 8dJkYpi6A0LXPW9MIq+IiAta2qy5PdOfv0UUDiXd+7AgaxXn4Bf6k79cg9ife7wH T6QIKpDQNr2blB/PZhlQmv8wex1TVxg63eAKXgwJvrFt6x5+za0YXHNNtO4Ku5O1 D2zl5F4/s3U= =dAZu -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
