Package: automake
Version: 1:1.10+nogfdl-1
Severity: minor
The automake description says:
Automake 1.10 fails to work in a number of situations that Automake
1.4, 1.6, 1.7, 1.8 and 1.9 did, so has been renamed so that the
previous version can continue to be made available.
I don't understand "so has been renamed so that the previous version
can continue to be made available". The package is named "automake".
So, in what sense has it been renamed? And which "previous version"?
BTW, shouldn't the package be named "automake1.10", automake being
a virtual package depending on automake1.10, so that when upgrading
to the future automake 1.11, version 1.10 will remain installed?
