But, do we realy distribute modified versions? I think that our source distribution policy (orig, diff and dsc file) keeps source in almost unchanged form, and diffs are distributed separately. Does licence prohibits name change to .orig, and renaming of base directory? If the answer is yes, we can solve both problems with few entries in description file. -- Tomislav Vujec [EMAIL PROTECTED] --------------------------------------------------------------- To understand recursion, one must first understand recursion... -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
