But you are going to package proper releases with proper versions. Is your problem only that it's inconvinent for your to update the version string and reuild all packages? Will be the old package work with the new interpreter without rebuilding them? Maybe using no version string would the best one. Simply sclo-nodejs. Or if you insist on a version string what about sclo-nodejs-latest? (But that commits you into following upstream very closely. Nobody wants latest version that isn't latest.) -- Petr
