Just as a reminder: If this ever does get backported to Lucid, I'd recommend that the versioned dependency should be "vgabios (>= 0.6c-2ubuntu2~)" (notice the tilde at the end). This is because vgabios will have to be backported as well and the backport will be versioned as e.g. 0.6c-2ubuntu2~lucid1, so it would not satisfy the tildeless versioned dependency. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/783864 Title: need a versioned depend on vgabios -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
