Hello everybody,
I have the impression that we are arguing because of solution in search for a
problem.
Some things worked with the previous version of dpkg, with no extra work for
anybody.
Who benefited directly from the change of behavior ? Nobody ? Then please
revert it; it was not necessary.
I propose a compromise.
- First, somebody convinces Joey to switch the ikiwiki to a non-native
format. If you can twist the arm of a highly reputed developer, it means
that the problem that you attempted to solve (a stricter distinction between
native and non-native packages) was really important.
- Then, we consider that others can follow.
- In the meantime, please revert the change in dpkg. There is no need to
prevent packages in the 3.0 (native) format to use non-native version
number.
Alternatively, please rename the "3.0 (native)" format to "3.0 (tarball)" or
anything elese, and we are done.
Cheers,
