Is there a precedent for this? Can these dependencies be packaged? Yes. I normally use 'date' for unversioned software. It's important to use it in the right way so that if they start using versions later their '0.1' is newer than your made-up dates (which it won't be if you used the obvious '20231118' (version 20-million-ish)). So you need to version it like this: 0~20231118 0~20240315 etc This is in the debian docs somewhere, but I forget where. Wookey -- Principal hats: Debian, Wookware, ARM http://wookware.org/
