OK folks,

I got tired of having to be careful not to have my xserver-xorg-core package upgraded, and dug a bit around package building.

Apparently adding an entry in the changelog file with a new version number should be good, after having applied the patch, of course.

Now, in order not to break legitimate updates (security or backport, and most importantly dist-upgrades at a later time), I need to learn more about the naming conventions for that sort of stuff.

Where is the place to learn about this?

Dear lazyweb... Could someone even give me a ready-made version?

Would this be sufficient?

Thanks for the help.

Once I have a .deb that works fine and once I am certain I will not be the cause of failed dist-upgrades in the future, I will be more than happy to share, of course.
