No dsc file to check.
*sigh*, obviously, I meant .deb here. For example, cpp_3.3.3-2_i386.deb contains the header: Source: gcc-defaults (1.14) Any .deb indicates its source, including binary-only NMU's, so no version number fiddling is needed to find the source (which would be impossible too, is 1.2-0.0.1 a binary NMU of 1.2, or of 1.2-0? Though nonstandard, the latter isn't forbidden) --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] (also for Jabber & MSN; ICQ: 33944357) http://Jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl
