Here what happens when I write e-mail:

Whatever the hell this file is, it shouldn't be public accessible
because it contains what I write inside pine.

Add ':' to the front of the version. The epoch has to be a
number. For example:
$ dpkg --compare-versions '2' gt '3'
$ echo $?
1
$ dpkg --compare-versions '1:2' gt '3'
$ echo $?
0

binary package is fine to install and use (and indeed, it fixes a bug
or two), but the whole thing ought not to be moved even into unstable
until we've finalised the new source package format.
The new dpkg contains a bevy of ne

Compiling and installing the compress source found on ftp.inria.fr I get a

Many .3t manual pages have .so requests like
.so SomePage.3t
instead of
.so man3/SomePage.3t
making the manual pages unusable.
