I suggest using version numbers compatible with [SemVer][0]. It doesn't strike me as incompatible with Debian versioning and brings some interesting programmatic advantage to manage dependencies upstream. If upstream is v0.1.0, you could use: 0.1.0-jude[-devuan-version]. `-devuan-version` would be preceded by a hyphen per the Debian documentation that was provided in this thread. The package then would show, e.g., 0.1.0-jude-jessie1. == hk [0]: http://semver.org/ "Semantic Versioning" -- _ _ We are free to share code and we code to share freedom (_X_)yne Foundation, Free Culture Foundry * https://www.dyne.org/donate/ _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
