lin + versioning problems

Hey,

I was trying to create a versioned xfce4-profile and I can't really get
it to work. The profile keeps downloading old 'default' profile sources,
instead of using the sources for the versioned profile.

Then I looked at the /var/state/depends file and noticed that it does
not save the information in a versioned format:

===
libxfce4mcs:libxfce4util:on:required::
xfce-mcs-manager:libxfce4mcs:on:required::
xfce-mcs-manager:libxfcegui4:on:required::
...
libxfce4mcs:libxfce4util/4.0:on:required::
xfce-mcs-manager:libxfce4mcs/4.0:on:required::
xfce-mcs-manager:libxfcegui4/4.0:on:required::
xfce-utils:xfce-mcs-manager/4.0:on:required::

===

How can lunar know the difference? Can this explain what I'm seeing?


Hmm, ok, it does build and install the correct version after downloading
the old sources first, but it removes the old 'default' version in the
instalation process, is that intended behaviour?

Hmm(2), it also seems to rebuild the versioned dependencies every time,
although they are installed already ...

Guess I'm doing something wrong. Does anybody have an idea what it is?
