Re: Renaming a package



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----

Thanks for all your answers, my package successfully transformed
to its new name with apt-get dist-upgrade in my test environment :-)

One last question: would it be safe to say

Architecture: all

in the dummy transition package since it does not contain
any architecture specific files anymore, or is it better to
leave it as it is with "Architecture: any" to create
architecture specific packages?

Thanks,

	Andreas
