Hi,

Henrik I noticed the packages you built for Januty in the PPA.

Why the version bump on the Januty package to the Intrepid package for 
applesmc-dkms? I did a diff and I cannot see anything changed other than 
the packaging. Is this correct?
 
If we are just adjusting the packaging instead of the code it would be 
better to append the version with 
0.14.4-0ubuntu1~mactel-support1~intrepid1 and 
0.14.4-0ubuntu1~mactel-support1~januty1 so we can update the packaging 
within the same source release? The 0ubuntu1 shows there is no Debain 
package and only a Ubuntu package, the ~mactel-support1~intrepid1 is the 
package revision. It would also make the PPA a little neater. This also 
falls in with the PPA packaging guide at 
https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA.

I have the new packages for 0.14.4 for Januty updated locally with the 
version appended as above. I was going to add them to the PPA today but  
Henrik has all ready updated the packages.

Thanks,

Adam
