When no suite references the package any longer, it is deleted, and _that_ part happens automatically. -- Magnus Holmgren[EMAIL PROTECTED] (No Cc of list mail needed, thanks) signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.

Removals by ftpmaster (whether of binaries, source, or both) normally happen against unstable only. The removal then propagates to testing, which means that the *next* stable release won't have them.

The only other thing you need to worry about is filing a bug report against ftp.debian.org to get the old php4-ps source package removed, since this won't happen automatically. -- Steve Langasek Give me a lever long enough and a Free OS Debian Developer to set it on, and I can move the world.

As long as the versions of the binary packages are higher than the ones already in the archive you should be safe I guess. Since you change the name of the source package the upstream version doesn't really matter since the orig.tar.gz's will named differently either way...
