In the mean time, it's still possible for a DM to upload a different soname in the same binary package, which would result in an even worse mess, right ? I don't like your tone, it's pedantic, because somehow it's legitimate to ask this kind of questions regarding the potential harm he already has the right to do with the DM upload rights. And I believe you didn't even look at his package (neither did I by the way...) Romain -- How can a man Discover a land That already populated with Indians?
