Hi Jaldhar, Were you aware that there is already a yui3 package in progress?

I wasn't aware that there was a yui3 package in progress. I'd prefer to stay with 3.5.1 instead of 3.6.0. > > Anyway concerning the package.

However, the reason why I was looking into have several minor versions is because, as I was told, hence requested, is that between the usage of yui3 minor versions some things were deprecated and changes were needed to be made at the code. Because of this, it made sense to keep minor version so rdepends won't break. However, I believe that overtime, having minor versions could become a little tedious to maintain. Nonetheless I would like to still keep the possibility in place. At the moment the yui3 package is not building due to binary files in the > source which should easy though a little tedious to fix if you would care > to take a look.

I'll take a look at the git repo and help where I can. Thanks for the input. Best regards. -- Andres Rodriguez (RoAkSoAx) Ubuntu Server Developer Systems Engineer
