PS. please keep the convention that packages in the PPA have
distribution name embedded, i.e. not 0.50-ubuntu2 but 0.50-maverick2 for
instance. There are all distribution in the PPA, the version must
distinguish them in some way and this is the most obvious (I think).

Another thing: try to avoid uploading source package as much as
possible. I was not really successful at that, but ideally all 0.50
packages (includeing 0.50.2 etc) should use yade-0.50.orig.tar.gz and
put the rest in the diff. debuild -sa or -sd creates the upload
with/without the source, which should be uploaded only once.

Congrats for the successful 0.50 maverick build.

Cheers, v.
