Hi Stelian,
I'm the current maintainer of the official Debian package of libfixposix [1]. Would you like to merge your repo into Debian official repo? You can maintain it by yourself if you want.
How would it work ?
Please register on mentors.debian.net, then:
- upload the packages;
I uploaded the files, but it shows you as uploader, as apparently a package can only have one uploader. Can you talk to the admins to transfer "ownership" to me ?
I think the reason is that there are some old packages uploaded by me on the server. I've deleted all of them. Please upload your package again.
Another issue is the version number. 0.2.4-1 is less than the current version (20110316.git47f17f7-1) in the repo. You can see their order by checking the exit status of 'dpkg --compare-version':
$ dpkg --compare-versions 20110316.git47f17f7-1 lt 0.2.4-1 $ echo $? 1
To fix it, put an epoch '1:' before 0.2.4-1 [1].
$ dpkg --compare-versions 20110316.git47f17f7-1 lt 1:0.2.4-1 $ echo $? 0
