I had planned new ppa builds for today, but the launchpad system is acting up (again...) and doesn't handle binary changes to the source properly. That bug was fixed in maverick, but the launchpad servers are running lucid and are rejecting my latest uploads (ref: https://lists.ubuntu.com/archives/ubuntu...12089.html )
I'll create new binary sources tonight and upload those, but I'll have to clear out some space first. That could result in apt-get update failing on my ppa for an hour or so. If you see that, just ignore it and try again later.
edit:
when I was reading I missed that the fix for this issue with dpkg has already been backported and is in the proposed repos now. new packages coming soon
ref: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+...bug/633015
edit2:
and now I see that launchpad is running karmic instead and lucid on the other build envs so it's not that easy. hmm...
now that I'm thinking about it, this is pretty logical. shouldn't do these things in a 5 minute break at work
edit3:
and this approach doesn't work either, because the change is in the control file which can't be extracted because of this bug. annoying.
