naming problem with make-kpkg and pcmcia-modules?

[Lee Bradshaw <lee@sectionIV.com>]

When I updated my frozen system last night, there was a new
pcmcia-modules package which seemed to replace my local custom one. My
kernel-image itself wasn't modified. Both the kernel image and modules
image .deb files were generated with make-kpkg.

new download:             pcmcia-modules-2.2.14_3.1.8-6k1_i386.deb
local compiled version:   pcmcia-modules-2.2.14_3.1.8-6+freeswan.1.0_i386.deb

For the kernel-images, the first thing after the first _ in the package
name is whatever the user specified with --revision which should
start with alpha chars and appear to be more recent than any debian
distributed kernel-image for that version. Is there a sorting issue
where the new debian pcmcia-modules seemed to be newer than my version
and automatically updated it?

When building the module image with make-kpkg, should the pcmcia number
go after the --revision field to keep the sorting order correct?

new download:              pcmcia-modules-2.2.14_3.1.8-6k1_i386.deb
suggested local version:   pcmcia-modules-2.2.14_freeswan.1.0+3.1.8-6_i386.deb

Could someone who understands the ordering better confirm what happened
and whether changing the name of the locally generated module image .deb
would fix it.

Thanks,
Lee
