Yes, thanks, that looks perfect. I second this wishlist bug patch :-) Ideally, it could even be more general, to permit arbitrary transformations of the filename in order to derive a version number before the comparison to the local version. But maybe there wouldn't be much call for that. For people reading emails to bug # 282255: refer here for context: http://lists.debian.org/debian-mentors/2005/01/msg00133.html regards, -- Kevin B.
