Ok. I always use upstream source archive instead of a downloaded gem. I don't mark packages that actually use source from the upstream archive with a special tag. And I don't think it is neither necessary nor a good idea to add extra version sections (I personally have enough trouble keeping up with (+|~)(dfsg|ds|debian)). This is the first time that I have seen such a versioning scheme. -- Per -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-ruby-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
