Please note I did not just unpackage and repackage it again but I also renamed the directory from 4.0-beta1 to 4.0~beta1 because: $ dpkg --compare-versions 4.0-beta1 gt 4.0; echo $? 0 $ dpkg --compare-versions 4.0~beta1 gt 4.0; echo $? 1 Should I rename the directory in the .orig.tar and make tamper-checking more difficult, or not rename the directory in the .orig.tar and make tamper-checking easier? - -- Pau Garcia i Quiles http://www.elpauer.org (Due to my workload, I may need 10 days to answer) -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: http://getfiregpg.org iD8DBQFJIv3j/DzYv9iGJzsRAj1iAJ934iAhCqIhs2+E58MmBpE0ZKfURACfcS9k +tad8qlRDybCmmIIExRc7HQ= =pKYa -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
