Hi,
Could somebody help me a little with the version-numbering schema used by debian since i don't understand it anymore. In DSA-122 people were advised to upgrade zlib1g to zlib1g_1.1.3-5.1_i386.deb. As i understand from the 'Debian Policy Manual' chapter 4 (version numbering), the epoch is used to get rid of screwed up numbering schemes. It may be omitted, in which case zero is assumed. So version 1.1.3-5.1 is actually the same as 0:1.1.3-5.1. But on security.debian.org i find version 1:1.1.3-5.1 .. the same upstream_version-debian_version but a different epoch. Kind regards, Michael Devogelaere. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
