Obviously it is impossible to understand my english, the points I wanted to make were: -Once 1.0-3 is in sid, 1.0-2 is removed from sid and nobody uses it anymore. -You cannot test 1.0-2 by using 1.0-3, there can be _unknown_ bugs in 1.0-2 which are not in 1.0-3 and vice versa. cu andreas -- Uptime: 10 seconds load average: 0.00, 0.00, 0.00 vim:ls=2:stl=***\ Sing\ a\ song.\ ***
