--- Begin Message ---Package: project Severity: wishlist For those who care about Debian derivatives: A derivative may be deployed as an overlay rather than a full archive. Modifications from the derivative live together with originals from Debian, but modifications must have a higher version. Full archives use this approach to increase the version: 1-1 → 1-1foo1 This does not work with overlays because of binNMUs: 1-1+b1 > 1-1foo1 1-1+b1 > 1-1foo1+b1 A binNMU may be unnecessary in the derivative. Also, these versions are disruptive: 1-1+b1foo1 1-1+b1foo1+b1 Thus, overlays should use this approach: 1-1 → 1-1.0foo1 However, regular uploads to stable and oldstable distributions may use the same signalization ("+") as binNMUs, so: 1-1+deb1u1 < 1-1.0foo1 Therefore, please use a higher version for these uploads, such as: 1-1 → 1-1.0+deb1u1

--- Begin Message ---Hi, the "project" pseudo-package is intended for "Problems related to project administration". Discussion version schemes seems to not fit that category, so I'll close the report. If the submitter wasn't banned from Debian lists, I would recommend to discuss on debian-devel@. Ansgar
