Hi again,

OK, this helps.  However, considering your later remark:  Is there any
reason not to choose the name

    htqc2-1.92.3-Source.tar.gz 

>From a packagers point of view it makes sense to use the same name as
the download archive.  If you might continue to maintain htqc1 and htqc2
our automatic sentinel that tracks download locations will have touble
to realise new versions of htqc (version 1) since the htqc2 download
tarballs seem to be higher.

I'll put this on my todo list.  In any case you could help me to write a
proper description that explains the differences to the users.  The
current packaging (under the name htqc - I did not yet updated to htqc2)
contains the description you see here:


  https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-med/htqc.git/tree/debian/control 


It would be great if you would

  * review this description
  * send me a description for htqc1

I could also put TCRklass on my todo list.

Thanks for your hints

     Andreas.
