G'day Bob, I don't rightly understand the distribution specific versioning issue, nor the debian override files. Ideally we need to be able to build the package for sarge, etch and sid ... and hopefully once we get that defined it shouldn't need further fiddling? Perhaps we should find out how other packages handle building three distribution flavours from the same source repository? Maybe move debian to debian-${distribution} and move it prior to package build? -- James Cameron mailto:quozl at us.netrek.org http://quozl.netrek.org/
