Hi Steffen and Guo,

as you have noticed Danilo and me (as committer, nothing more :p ) have committed some changes in debian/control.in file

I really would like to have a feedback from you, since the changes seems rather good but I'm not confortable with something like

-@ boinc-client (>= ${binary:Version}), boinc-manager (>= ${binary:Version})
+@ boinc-client (= ${binary:Version}), boinc-manager (= ${binary:Version})

and stuff like this
- at Breaks: libboinc-app (<= 7.0.34+dfsg-1),
-@ boinc-dev (<< 7.0.28+dfsg-3)
- at Replaces: libboinc-app (<= 7.0.34+dfsg-1),
-@ boinc-dev (<< 7.0.28+dfsg-3)
+ at Breaks: libboinc-app (<< ${binary:Version}),
+@ boinc-dev (<< ${binary:Version})
+ at Replaces: libboinc-app (<< ${binary:Version}),
+@ boinc-dev (<< ${binary:Version})
this might simplify the update for boinc users, forcing to update the whole package rather than only the client or manager (leading to a potentially corrupted system, since the API/ABI is not stable and compatible between versions)



thanks Danilo for the help,

cheers,

Gianfranco
