Probably, I'll do a complete rebuild from a relatively clean woody chroot, as my current woody+freetype backport was done on a system with many other quick and dirty backports installed. > I was thinking about rebuilding my OOo Version on my > woody-gnome2.2-freetype6 system as well and would like to spare > the time which is needed for the compilation... It may take until next wednesday before I have a new set of packages available. > I haven't done any 'official' backports yet, but there were good > instructions from Adrian Bunk: decrease the last number by one and > add a string and your own version number: > > 1.0.2-2 -> 1.0.2-1.freetype.1 Ok, that sounds good to me.
