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 -- Chrissie Caulfield <chrissie@debian.org> Thu, 5 Jun 2014 15:35:31 +0100 #####
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.
