That was clear. It's what appears after the first hyphen in your
previous mail (and CVS) which is a bit weird. I mean:
The package _names_ will be libgdal1-1.3.1 and libgdal1-1.3.1-dev,
the versions will be 1.3.1-1 for both them. You (and CVS) proposed
libgdal1-dev-1.3.1-1 and libgdal1-1.3.1-1 which is a bit confused
even for the versions after the 3rd hyphen (and the first one also wrong
AFAIK). Are you pointing the package names or the names+version?
In the second case they should be
libgdal1-1.3.1_1.3.1-1
libgdal1-1.3.1-dev_1.3.1-1
You proposed something like
libgdal1-1.3.1-1_1.3.1-1
libgdal1-dev-1.3.1-1_1.3.1-1
which is a complete non-sense IMHO...
