OK folks, I got tired of having to be careful not to have my xserver-xorg-core package upgraded, and dug a bit around package building.
Apparently adding an entry in the changelog file with a new version number should be good, after having applied the patch, of course. Now, in order not to break legitimate updates (security or backport, and most importantly dist-upgrades at a later time), I need to learn more about the naming conventions for that sort of stuff. Where is the place to learn about this? Dear lazyweb... Could someone even give me a ready-made version? Would this be sufficient? xorg-server (1:1.1.1-0ubuntu12.1+acpifix) edgy-security; urgency=low * Fix ACPI Lid bug - lauchpad #61746 -- Nicolas Will <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Fri, 9 Feb 2007 18:15:41 -0600 Thanks for the help. Once I have a .deb that works fine and once I am certain I will not be the cause of failed dist-upgrades in the future, I will be more than happy to share, of course.
