version of package being replaced ?



Hello, ...

I wish to be able, in a package postinst, to be able to know the
previously installed version of the package, so i can take different
actions depending of the version we are replacing.

I suppose it is also possible to easily distinguish between a first time
install and an upgrade.

Is such a thing possible, how can it be done.

Friendly,

Sven Luther
