Personally, i'd use something like 1.0.4-0.slink, so that it would be replaced by the 'official' 1.0.4-1 if that were ever released, or if you later went to potato. Things like this are why i have a bunch of packages with versions like pump version 0.7.1-1.00001 (modified to give the option to stop logging ~1K of debug information literally every 30 seconds to 3 different logfiles, without disabling ALL debug level logging as suggested in the manpage). - -- finger for PGP public key. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBN/goDr7M/9WKZLW5AQG0CwQAjn5/eTl0aAox/3Rr/rR9hbw94gJ3fI5i jUfizcrXva7mDrA5VFHFmfQp/u5iSiAGwYGst80nlNLdCBHglRNTmGT2L0pYeqjO hXu6kSIEdp0a94YWgdIZPUvHKuDaAZtmhoIiYi/tpb72Suhb/qzSyt4fC7yhj2rF EYyNX4ayisc= =YiAd -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
