Hi Thomas,



>And why does it still work when i install back 1.4.0-2 ?




well, if -2 and -3 didn't change symbols (e.g.  you didn't patch the source code),
why shouldn't it work?

(I'm not sure to know how exactly the build.ids are mapped to the binary code, but I guess
they work as long as the symbols table don't change)
