Good point. I'm going to change 'cme fix dpkg' warning message to mention this. The message will look like: Warning in 'control source Standards-Version' value '3.9.5': Current standards version is 3.9.8. Please read https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ upgrading-checklist.html to check what changes need to applied to your package to upgrade it from standard version 3.9.5 to 3.9.8 Ideas are welcome to improve this message after the generic part, i.e. after "Warning in 'control source Standards-Version' value '3.9.5':" All the best -- https://github.com/dod38fr/ -o- http://search.cpan.org/~ddumont/ http://ddumont.wordpress.com/ -o- irc: dod at irc.debian.org
