After Werner Koch posted a small security patch for GnuPG 1.0.4 in gnupg-announce I decided it's time to compile gnupg from sources. Using Potato, I already had version 1.0.4 in use.
Using "apt-get source gnupg" I fetched the most current sources, applied the patch and built gnupg_1.0.4-1_i386.deb, which I then installed. Everything seemed to work fine until I - a few days later - told apt-get to upgrade my packages. For some reason, it decided I needed the newest gnupg, gnupg_1.0.4-1_i386.deb and installed it. After I noticed what had happenes, I - again - installed the .deb I had compiled and now apt-get wants to upgrade it again. What I don't understand, is how come this happens even though package names are exactly the same. I assume that I could have used some other name for the package I compiled - like I do with "--revision" when compiling kernel -, is this correct? Suonpää...
