Bug#1006287: RFS: hpnssh/1:8.8p1-hpn16v1-9 [ITP] -- high performance secure shell client and server (metapackage)

[rapier <rapier@psc.edu>]

Bastian,

I'm sorry to bother you. I've tried to upload a new version with the 
changes you suggested but it was rejected. The error is

Rejected:
hpnssh_8.8p1hpn16v1-1.dsc: Version older than that in the archive. 
8.8p1hpn16v1-1 <= 1:8.8p1-hpn16v1-8

hpnssh (8.8p1hpn16v1-1) impish; urgency=medium

  * Submission to Debian for impish.
  * Refactor binary names to have hpn prefix

Which is why my revision number hit 9 the first time. I'm not sure how 
to resolve this aside from either deleting the existing PPA and starting 
over or creating a new PPA. Do I have any other options?

I really appreciate the time you are spending on this.

Thanks again,

Chris
