Modify the debian/changelog in your debian source tree so that the version is 2:1.0.6-3, etc... the number in front of the colon will not show up in dselect, etc. This change will keep your version "current." Unfortunately, dselect doesn't provide an indication when a newer debian version is available. You can still get the latest source version with apt- get source. -Paul
