I would think this would only be necessary if kdelibs4 3.3.0-1 and 3.3.0-1.1 are binary incompatible. If you know or believe that they are, go ahead and add the dependancy for 3.3.0-1.1 or greater, but that's not necessary in general. > Once I've done that and tested, I'll upload final versions of the > package. Sounds good; posts the links to your packages when you feel that they're ready and I'll take a look at them. Unfortunately, like a quantum particle, I'll be popping in and out of existance this week, but I should have time to look over your package and sponsor the upload if there are no problems in the next day or two. =) -- Wesley J.
