I'm using Testing. I've build madwifi-source with m-a suite : m-a prepare, build then install As I've done with the previous version. Yes, I've the latest madwifi-tools from testing repositories, I've no updates at this time. My madwifi-tools version is 1:0.9.3+dfsg-3, and it is the latest from testing repositories (as aptitude says after an update). As you see, it doesn't match the madwifi-source version number. You can see the same at packages.debian.org for testing (and sid for mips and mipsel arch). the madwifi-tools policy: $ apt-cache policy madwifi-tools madwifi-tools: Installed: 1:0.9.3+dfsg-3 Candidate: 1:0.9.3+dfsg-3 Version table: *** 1:0.9.3+dfsg-3 0 900 http://ftp.fr.debian.org lenny/contrib Packages 900 http://ftp.fr.debian.org testing/contrib Packages 100 /var/lib/dpkg/status 1:0.9.3+dfsg-1 0 -20 ftp://fr.archive.ubuntu.com gutsy/universe Packages It seems for me that the madwifi-tools package has to be updated in the repositories to match the madwifi-source version, isn't it?
