Thanks for your initiative in this, Tim. > There is a new upstream version (and new upstream) available at: > http://search.cpan.org/dist/p5-Palm/ - I haven't checked that it's > completely backwards-compatible, but I assume so. The Changes file is not very verbose unfortunately. "catches up for all the changes since Nov 2002 :/" > The new versioning style may require adding an epoch... or should > the package really be called 'libp5-palm-perl'? libpalm-perl is better, as the main module is Palm (and others are all Palm::Foo). About the versions, I'd use upstream version mangling in debian/watch. The currently present version is 1.3.0, and the new upstream release is 1.009. So I'd add opts="uversionmangle=s/\.0+/./" to the beginning of the watch line. This way the 1.009 will become 1.9. Or, use an epoch. I find epochs ugly, but version mangling is not that nice either. -- dam JabberID: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
