Andrew, may i ask you a favour?

It would be desireable, if every single version 
of a package has a immutable URL.
To accomplish this, there may not be in place changes 
of a file. File names are versioned instead. 

The most straightforward way would be to supply a tar.gz archive 
of the beta directory and version the archive names
like "lsb_testsuite-beta4.tar.gz". 

This guarantees that people take the correct combination 
of test suite framework, etc. And it makes package building 
more easy.
