Yes (but not very), yes (or the others), the versions are chosen by people and people don't think alike. I think I prefer the plus variant but I'm not fully sure why. Perhaps the -dfsg-1 might get confused with a Debian version somewhere and perhaps the plus makes it more clear that the version is modified. > OK, and why "dfsg1" and not simply "dfsg" ? The possibility exists of multiple non-free things being found over time, this makes it clear that this is the first dfsg-ified tarball for this upstream release. For later removals you can bump that version to 2. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-mentors-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
