This is because the latest upstream releases have the suffix "betaXX" after the version number (2.0), and when APT compares versions it thinks that: 2.0 is less 2.0beta12 and will regard this as a downgrade. So naming the version 0.99.3+2.0beta12 will let upgrading when the final 2.0 version will be out. Ciao! Free -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
