Since we have '~' nowadays for problems like these and everything aside from the obvious stuff we currently catch (i.e. 0|1|0.1) is just pure guesswork I would suggest closing this bug. (The only somewhat sane way to improve automatic -sa handling is requested by #28701 "dpkg-genchanges should compare the version numbers", IMHO) Gruesse, -- Frank Lichtenheld <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> www: http://www.djpig.de/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
