Re: What warrants a non-maintainer release number?

The discussion started when someone (I forgot who :) did a non-maintainer
upload for another architecture _twice_, the second time with different
depedencies (resulted from simply recompiling) but with the same version
number.
However, the `non-maintainer' part of this discussion is totally
unimportant. What matters is the question `in which cases has the version
number to be incremented and in which cases can it be left'?
I think we all agree now that the version number has to be incremented
whenever the binary package is changed on master (even in Incoming/).
(The only situation where one can upload a binary package twice without
changing the version number would be when the first upload wasn't
successful--i.e., the fules got truncated.)
Thanks,
Chris
