Thanks for the suggestion. I'm not familiar with the unison case, but I
guess the split was introduced to be able to talk to other computers?
This is not the case with crm114, I can't see any common reason having
more than one crm114 version on a single computer. The crm114 problem
is different, how to prevent unnoticed upgrade.
Josselin, it's not clear to me how your "package name" arrangement would
ensure the opposite thing, that people don't miss new versions.
E.g. when one upgrades from lenny to squeeze, he could end up with old
lenny crm114 package after the upgrade, without noticing there is
something new in squeeze. Or when one performs regular unstable
updates, how to retain crm114 up to date?
