Re: Version - Count



* Jörg Frings-Fürst <debian@jff-webhosting.net>, 2014-06-20, 15:45:
I want to adopt the package dnprogs [1].

Now I have a prob with the version-number.
On the svn-Repo[2] the latest version is 2.62.

In unstable and testing the version is 2.63 with the changelog:

#####
dnprogs (2.63) unstable; urgency=low

 * Orphan the package

Mixing Debian maintainer and upstream roles is a recipe for troubles like this. :-(

The tarball of the version 2.63 contains older files as in the repo.



What can I do?

Ask upstream to update the repo. Then switch to the non-native source package format.
