</div>Noticed something odd. If I add both the stable and the beta PPA to my<br>
system, it picks the 1.4rc1 (from beta) over 1.4 (from stable). IIRC how<br>
apt/dpkg works is it compares version numbers. It seems in it's logic<br>
1.4rc1 > 1.4.<br>
<br>
In another project I worked around this by slightly changing the version<br>
number of the package:<br>
<br>
final 1.4<br>
beta 1.4~beta1<br>
rc 1.4~rc1<br>
<br>
This works because in Debian/Ubuntu the complete version will look like<br>
this:<br>
<br>
1.4-1ubuntu1<br>
1.4~beta1-1ubuntu1<br>
1.4~rc1-1ubuntu1<br>
<br>
I guess when comparing these version strings the "-" is considered ><br>
that the "~".<br>
