I can do that as well, and just hard code the version of perl used.   
But somewhere (and I can't find it this morning) I thought that the  
policy was to try to have as many packages built that will handle all  
10.4 though 10.6.  Thus I was trying to find the accepted way of using  
the perl version and the package version.  But that tells me that my  
package is duplicately defined.

And validate gives
% fink validate rmagic.info
Validating package file rmagic.info...
Error: Duplicate declaration of package "rmagic". (rmagic.info)
Error: Duplicate declaration of package "rmagic". (rmagic.info)
Error: Duplicate declaration of package "rmagic". (rmagic.info)
Error: Duplicate declaration of package "rmagic". (rmagic.info)

this is under OS 10.5.  I have the distribution defined 3 times for  
10.5 for different versions of perl.  I have 4 versions of perl on my  
system (3 in fink and one from the OS).

I can get rid of this by defining my package to be rmagic-pmNN but is  
that necessary?
