That's actually not guaranteed. If 3.0.4 contains only the security fix and really nothing else, I see no reason why it cannot be uploaded to security.debian.org. The reason why usually (V-1)-1sarge-1 is chosen for the version number is so that if 3.0.4 is still current by the time the next stable goes out, it will be an upgrade candidate. In this case, the delta would be zero, which would make it nonsensical and unnecessary to change the version number in the first place. Then again, I am not sure about this... just speculating. -- Please do not send copies of list mail to me; I read the list! .''`. martin f. krafft <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> : :' : proud Debian developer and author: http://debiansystem.info `. `'` `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing a system Invalid/expired PGP subkeys?
