Keep it the same name. Woody is unstable right now, there are a lot of packages that are pre-release just for the sake of testing and working out bugs. So, IMO, keep it the same name, and version it appropriately. Also might add "This is a CVS build" at the bottom of the description. Note, you can't break much anyway. I'm about ready to upload glibc 2.1.93 (pre-2.2) to woody anyway, so if anything is going to break, it's most likely going to be my fault :) -- -----------=======-=-======-=========-----------=====------------=-=------ / Ben Collins -- ...on that fantastic voyage... -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ' `---=========------=======-------------=-=-----=-===-======-------=--=---' -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
