Maybe it > would be interesting to have 1.13.1 in Beta3, wouldn't it? Unfortunately the build failure on alpha delayed linux-ntfs too much to rename the dependency in partman for the udeb in time for Beta 3. This means that partman in Beta 3 still depends on the old ntfstools-udeb. I therefore decided to release Beta 3 with the old version of linux-ntfs (i.e: have the old version included on Beta 3 CDs). I have also tested that the Provides: in ntfsprogs-udeb does work and so migrating linux-ntfs to testing after the release of Beta 3 will not break Beta 3, so I will request to unblock linux-ntfs probably next week. The above also means that the Provides: will need to be kept at least until after the next d-i release. Cheers, FJP
