Look: [EMAIL PROTECTED] joy]$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.1 \> 1.02 || echo false false However: [EMAIL PROTECTED] joy]$ dpkg --compare-versions 1.10 \> 1.02 && echo true true Make the new version 1.10 and problem is solved... although if there is a real 1.10 version sometime in the future, you'll have to make it 1.100 ;) Maybe you can ask the author to name the next version 1.11 or 1.2? I agree epochs are bad for this kind of thing. -- enJoy -*/\*- http://jagor.srce.hr/~jrodin/
