Hello, I am preparing an updated package with an unsolved security bug. I would like to upload it to mentors.debian.net, but when it gets uploaded to main it will have the same version number as the one on mentors. I would to know if there is a way to upload to mentors and be sure it gets upgraded when it enters main.
I had this problem before, but now it is worse because of the security bug. I looked at the policy and the reverse problem seems to be solved by using epochs. An negative epoch is not the way right? And how do I apply an epoch? Yada complains when I try to put an Version: field somewhere. Is there an other way to do it without having to bump the debian version? Or is that exactly what I should do? Cheers, Remco.
