Upstream could put a version number in the .pck files themselves (assuming that they are Python pickled objects, and that Python is generally backwards-compatible in this area). It should be rather straightforward to check those files for compatibility. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-rc-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
