Use the long version number. That way it is clear at a glance what goes with what. That is, change this: EMNU-1.05.tar.gz to EMNU-1.05_for_4.1.0.tar.gz Inside the .tar it can still unpack into EMNU-1.05. The trick is making sure the right variant of EMNU (etc.) is always unpacked into the matching EMBOSS directory tree. It would probably also help if both EMBOSS and the EMBASSY programs had a top level "EMBOSS.VERSION" file, so that the Makefile for EMBASSY programs could check first thing to verify that they were in the right place, ie diff EMBOSS.VERSION .. At the moment the "4.x.y" info is relatively inaccessible in configure, Makefile, and so forth.
