In some cases (for example library bindings) the exact versions of all used packages plays a big role. I don't care very much about the handling of normal packages (as long as the maintainer name is changed when the source is changed), but I'd prefer if Ubuntu (and other Debian derivatives) would ensure for those cases that the Maintainer field is changed to the person doing the recompile (and YES, it needs to be a person to do, oh, how do you call it, *tests*) Marc -- BOFH #276: U.S. Postal Service
