The scheme is described here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment#UbuntuPackages which is linked, along with other pertinent information for Debian developers, from here: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuForDebianDevelopers > I ask this because you seem to assume that: > X.Y.Z-K (Debian) << X.Y.Z-L (Ubuntu) If K < L, yes, this is true. > X.Y.Z-K (Debian) << X.Y.Z-KubuntuA (Ubuntu) This should always be true as well. It is sometimes possible that A.B.D-1 is "older" than A.B.C-2ubuntu1 (where Ubuntu has continued to patch an older version due to a freeze), but for purposes of identifying out-of-date packages, the above should be reasonable assumptions. -- - mdz -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
