[…] > And why do you add patches to native package? More directly: Why is this package given a Debian-native version when it's clearly not specific to Debian systems? You should only use a native Debian package when it is clear that the package would only ever be of use in Debian. Even if the software is currently only available in Debian, if someone could reasonably use the software on another distribution or on another operating system, then the package should be non-native. <URL:http://people.debian.org/~mpalmer/debian-mentors_FAQ.html#native_vs_non_native> -- \ “The only tyrant I accept in this world is the still voice | `\ within.” —Mahatma Gandhi | _o__) | Ben Finney
